  13. Every now and then, some sorts of "24-hour flu" or short-term virus
  14. assails a large number of people in a metro area. I was wondering --
  15. do any public-health organizations keep track of these short-term minor
  16. illnesses in some way, or do these all come and go with little
  17. visibility to the medical profession?
