The Return of the Flu

The second wave appears to be in full force, with some 4,000 cases in Mexico in the past week, across what seems to be a wider geographic area than before. (Although in all honesty I'm basing that presumption only on the fact that people I know have been infected, which didn't happen the last time.) The response from the government appears to be more measured this time around; school closings are less likely, and stadiums will be filled to half capacity rather than closed altogether.

(H/T)
