This month's edition provides a response to the hype surrounding the so-called swine flu. We have not seen so much media hype since the so-called bird flu marketing exercise of 2005.

Read the article to learn what is an appropriate response.

Children’s Supplements Use Study Report Reveals More About Authors Than Intended Focus

Once again the authors of a research report have revealed more about their own shortcomings than about the intended focus of the study. One has to wonder how they can be so ignorant.
