Here and Now - Swine Flu

I'd hate to be a parent who has to take off work or make arrangements for their kid or kids whose school is temporarily shut down because of confirmed cases of swine flu. That's about the biggest affect the outbreak has had on Arizona so far.

On Wednesday's Here and Now Mark Brodie will speak with public health officials and infectious disease specialists about the outbreak of swine flu. Turns out, Arizona is in an excellent position to deal with, with plans already in plan, and similar scenarios already practiced.

We also hope to find out what happens next if, god forbid, this turns into a pandemic and people getting seriously ill and even die (which so far has not happened with almost all U.S. cases.

If you have a question, idea, or suggestion for our guests, feel free to post it below. One tip. The shorter the question, the easier it is to use.
