Deadly Adenovirus - Common Cold in the News


Big news today is the death of at least 10 people in the US due to a new strain of an Adenovirus (pictured). CMSP has several photos and illustrations of adenovirus. Visit www.cmsp.com and search on adenovirus to view over 20 different adenovirus images.

Adenovirus is a virus, so antibiotics do not help. This is a form of the common cold. No cure. Get rest, drink fluids, wash your hands a lot, blah blah blah. No doubt we all will be seeing and hearing more about this virulent adenovirus.

It is Friday. Have a nice weekend. Bears at Seattle.
