** SWINE FLU WIDGET: The swine flu situation has exploded onto the scene
with intense media and blogosphere interest and concern. HHS has worked
with CDC to create a small-footprint widget that get's people to three
primary categories of information (general, the investigation and what
people can do). We would appreciate the help of the HHS and federal
families in placing the widget on as many home and related pages as
possible. English version is available immediately. Spanish will be
available this weekend but don't hold English for the Spanish. The
widget with code is available from
http://www.hhs.gov/web/library/index.html (scroll to the bottom of the
page). Any help you can give will be most appreciated.
