This morning I received word from the Leavitt Institute that a national flu epidemic is raging in Ukraine, and that all of our schools have shut down for at least three weeks. On Friday morning the Ukrainian Health ministry has announced a nationwide epidemic of the A/H1N1 virus, also known as swine flu, according to Interfax. The result is a cancellation of my teaching assignment in Ukraine this month. I am hopeful that I can go in early 2010 instead.
More later.
