The purpose of this blog



This blog is being set up as a clearing house for H1N1 information. Our objectives are:
1) to provide accurate and up to date information to Program Directors/Associate Directors/Staff about the H1N1 threat:
2) to provide a straightforward mechanism for all Reid Hall personnel to communicate about this situation;
3) to act as a rumor control mechanism, substituting data and facts for rumors and fears.

As of now, all staff listed in the master directory of Reid Hall (kindly supplied by Susannah Mowris) can contribute to this blog-- you will be getting an email with instructions shortly.
As with many matters concerning H1N1, the utility of this blog depends entirely on our collective willingness to contribute to it.

Et maintenant, aux barricades,
Rob
