Give Olympic athletes flu shot priority

CBC could today report that Bob McCormack, chief medical officer for Canada's Olympic team, told CBC News the Olympics provide a potential breeding ground for the H1N1 virus and that provides justification for making athletes a priority for the vaccine.

Knowing how anal top athletes can be about their health, I think I would be more worried about the audience, the volunteers, and everybody else that will be in and around the Olympic trails.

And,until I see Canadian Top Athletes take over for Younger Women as the group hardest hit by H1N1 I'll say "Get in line!"
