    MA: Boston hospitals over capacity due to flu cases

    UPI: Influenza, not the only illness spreading

    "...Boston declared a public health emergency after 700 people were diagnosed with influenza and four died. Hospitals in Boston have run out of space to treat patients -- at Brigham and Women's Hospital 100 patients were crowded into spaces licensed for 53 and Massachusetts General Hospital treated 532 confirmed influenza patients so far, and admitted 167, more than it did by this time during the 2009 H1N1 swine flu pandemic."



    "What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention, and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it." - Herbert Simon

    "The benefits of education and of useful knowledge, generally diffused through a community, are essential to the preservation of a free government." - Sam Houston
