Long hiatus...

I apologize for the long hiatus from posting. Finals for school and holidays took up some time, and then I lost a week and a half to the flu. I chose not to get a flu shot this year, since I've found that I get sick just as frequently, with or without the shot.

I wanted to pass along this 2009 article from the Huffington Post on staying healthy during flu season.

It also has an interesting fact: The federal government has agreed to protect pharmaceutical companies from lawsuits stemming from side effects from the vaccine, otherwise the companies would not produce the vaccines.
