   phn92 posted a topic in Indiana

   How many of you are snowed in? Did anyone have to go to work today and how were you getting there? I'm lucky, I'm off until Monday and so no plans to get out at all. We have about 20 inches of snow and drifting. I hope everyone has a safe holiday...

    First time, I did a follow-up on a case (I think it was E-Coli), the Dr's office wasn't too sure if they could give me the info. This was after HIPPA was started. All I did was mention that it was a Communicable Disease and had to be reported to th...
