Three flu shots in 2010?
One shot may not be enough to prevent the flu next season.  The Washington Post reports the Obama administration is considering recommending three flu shots next year.  Two of the shots would be aimed at the swine flu virus.  This measure would require companies to create upwards of 800-million rounds of vaccine.  No formal decision has been made.  Currently, there's about 400 cases swine flu infections in the U.S. including one that has resulted in death.


Successful Face Transplant
Some viewers might find this next video a little graphic.  A courageous woman who was the first successful "full face" transplant recipient is speaking out.  Connie Culp was shot in the face in 2004 resulting in severe damage to her bones and leaving her horribly disfigured.  Even after countless surgeries Culp didn't have a nose and couldn't breathe properly.  But in a 22-hour surgery doctors at the Cleveland Clinic transplanted a new face.  Now she can breathe properly even smell again.
