It turns out that the place hit worst by H1N1 right now is the good old USA.
Why? Because of our antediluvian workplace and worker protections.
We are the only industrial nation that does not require paid sick and vacation time, so, "infections among healthcare workers suggest that people are showing up at work sick -- meaning that workplace policies may be contributing to its spread."
You think that the American workplace, with its inducements to come in sick might contribute to the spread of disease?
Who would have thunk it?
