Transcript of CDC briefing on Canine Flu

There's an excellent briefing, conducted yesterday by the CDC, Cornell and
U. of Florida vet involved, on the Canine Flu about which so much
information is circulating.

So here is the link - lots of good, factual information....

Pour a cup of coffee or tea before you start!

Thought some of you might be interested in reading this.

Thanks for posting this link. I didn't read the whole thing, but I got to the part where it says that this is not as deadly as internet buzz would make it seem. 80% have a mild case and only 20% develop complications such as pneumonia, etc.

Very interesting, though, that it jumped species from horses to dogs.

Thanks again,

CJ
