[nagdu] confirm cases of dogs getting swine flu from humans

[Cindy Ray]

Sarah, wondering if you've read the information that Ginger sent us that was 
from CDC? I understand what you are saying, but it is possible that this 
information is not up-to-date, for just as strains come along and vaccines 
are developed, new information becomes available, too.

oh and I wanted to add to my previous comment that strains are always 
developing and adapting to new environments.  This is why the vaccine for 
the normal flu changes because the strain wants to survive so it will adapt. 
If that makes sense.
