Guest: Norman Edelman, MD

Host: Matt Birnholz, MD

Host: Michael Greenberg, MD

We are moving closer to the height of what many feel will be an extraordinarily busy flu season, with H1N1 and the seasonal flu both central parts of the discussion. We don't know exactly how serious H1N1 will be, but we do know that it's here, that many more people could get sick, and that we have to be prepared to deal with it. Hosts Dr. Michael Greenberg and Dr. Matt Birnholz speak with Dr. Norman Edelman, chief medical officer for the American Lung Association and a professor of preventive medicine and internal medicine at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.

Dr. Birnholz and Dr. Greenberg will also give you their take on an amusing recitation of the health reform bill in the House known as HR 3200. They will also play back the winning entry in an entertaining yet informative contest to create a public service announcement on H1N1, co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. You won't want to miss it!
