New website helps swine flu response

(NBC) - Prompt treatment for the flu may be just what you need -- if you're sick and miserable with what you think might be swine flu. But then again -- maybe all you have is a bad cold.

To get a better idea of what's wrong, a new website from Microsoft could help. It's the H1N1 response center and it asks users series of question about their symptoms and underlying health conditions.

The website was designed in part to help cut down on the amount of people flooding hospital emergency rooms.
