Track the spread of Swine Flu online in real time

Good news hypochondriacs! You can now track the spread of Swine Flu online in real time! An American biomedical researcher has created a map using Google Maps to track reported cases of H1N1 Swine Flu as they get confirmed by the World Health Organization.

The map is pretty easy to decipher. The pink markers are suspect, the purple markers are confirmed. Deaths from H1N1 lack a dot in the marker, and yellow dots mean the suspected case turned out to be negative.
