Flu and Time Magazine and Flu.lanl.gov
Tue Oct 25 2005 14:04 MDT #Time.com (and it looks like Time magazine) just published a "Notebook" piece on Flu.lanl.gov, (the website of Influenza Sequence Database), going subscription . A solid piece that includes the following:
Barack Obama--who helped win Senate approval for $3.9 billion in flu preparedness and response plans and wants Bush to appoint a flu czar "so that things like this don't slip through the cracks"--says that making the site subscription-based only is "an example of the insufficient investment" in U.S. readiness for a pandemic.
Hopefully the attention will also generate some revenue for the ISD !
