With the fear of a global “Swine Flu” pandemic growing, by what seems like an hourly intervals, I wonder what the chances are that we might learn from rather serious mistakes and change the manner in which we conduct “business?” And with what must be such an absurd question out of the way, I’d like to direct you to a couple of poignant blog entries, I came across today. A Call for Humility and Swine Flu and Empathy.
