[Health_Education_Promotion] FW: Flu Near You

[Lesa Dixon-Gray]

Hi All:
 
There's also a link to register for the same study that would benefit OPHA. If you register through us, there's the potential for the Oregon Public Health Association to earn some large incentives.  Please help OPHA, help APHA track the flu through social networks, and help your neighbors by tracking where the flu is on your own.  It's a fun project, and can really benefit OPHA.
 
Here's our personalized link:   
 
http://www.flunearyou.org/?a=6eab68faf63182
 
You will register, receive a confirmation email, then respond weekly to a very very very short survey.
 
The Oregon Public Health Association – stands to acquire resources if a lot of people participate using this link.  Help support us, and track where the flu is showing up in your community.
 
PLEASE pass the link on to your network of friends.  This is for everyone.  
 
We should be following experiments like this that use interesting connections to track diseases.
 
For example, if you have not see it already, look at flu trends at google:
