A while ago Google created a way through Google Maps to track the influenza virus (http://www.google.org/flutrends/). If you have not checked it out you should as it brings Google's power, ease and accessibility to health care.
Just recently Google took a new approach to the flu virus (particular H1N1) and opened up PLoS Currents: Influenza. It is a scientific communication tool more than anything else built on Knol (ok, so not everything at Google flys). An awesome little concept and peak at what the future of real time communication holds. Imagine the usefulness of a cohesive scientific discussion during an emergency situation.
