Flu.gov has an interactive site that allows users to answer questions to help determine if they or their child might have the H1N1 flu.
Another site, presented by Emory University and Microsoft, allows users to take a flu self-assessment.
Both sites ask the user a series of questions, and help them decide what course of action to take, such as seeing a doctor.

The Public Library of Science has launched a new website, PLoS Currents: Influenza, to facilitate sharing of information.
The open access site “is built on three key components: a small expert research community that PLoS is working with to run the website; Google Knol with new features that allow content to be gathered together in collections after being vetted by expert moderators; and a new, independent database at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) called Rapid Research Notes, where research targeted for rapid communication, such as the content in PLoS Currents: Influenza will be freely and permanently accessible.”
