Google Maps tracks Swine Flu

By Fabio on Tuesday April 28th 2009 04:11 | Category: Web

News and concern over swine flu has spread faster than the actual illness, but if you want to keep a close eye on reports confirmed and otherwise this Google Maps mashup does the job nicely.

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

The map is showing updates fairly regularly, and it's nice to see the distinction between suspected and confirmed accounts. The map's creator, Niman, identifies as "Biomedical Research from PIttsburg" on his/her Google profile, for whatever that's worth.
