Track the Swine Flu Outbreaks on Google Maps

Want to track the swine flu outbreaks on your desktop?  A chap named “niman” has created a nifty Google Map of all the swine flu activity…ON EARTH!

Key:

• Pink markers are suspect
• Purple markers are confirmed
• Deaths lack a dot in marker
• Yellow markers are negative

If you go to the full map page (link below) it gives an itemized list of those who have come down with the disease.  We can’t make any claims to the validity of this information, but it looks like the person updating it has been digesting headlines, so it’s probably as accurate as something like this needs to be.
