Swine flu

I have started developing an example of using the SCONUL 7 Pillars model of information literacy with questions about swine flu via a 3D model in the virtual world Second Life. As with the existing "bird flu" build, the idea is that it could be used to help people think about the different pillars in relation to a particular problem. I am seeking help with suggestions of different problems/questions to do with swine flu and different examples for the various pillars. I aim to hold a session in SL specifically about this.
You can see the build at the following location on our Second Life island, Infolit iSchool (you need a SL viewer and an avatar)http://tinyurl.com/p6qk3w

Not a bad idea. The lack of media attention might have you think that the swine flu is "dying down" but it keeps spreading drastically every day when I check FluCount.org anyway.
