New Infectious Disease Info Website

Hey guys! I thought this might be a useful find for everyone, first as purely a matter of interest, but second of all as a resource for lots of New and Hots! It's essentially a new site that combines GoogleEarth with all of the latest Infectious Disease info from around the world. You can choose the news feeds from which it picks up the latest headlines, and even choose the types of diseases you want shown on your "Health Map". I was just looking at it and found out that Hyderabad just reported its first case of polio in 5 years. So, in conclusion, this site is totally wicked cool.
