Anybody who's been knocked out by a bout of influenza will know that it's like being hit with a jab from Lennox Lewis. To prevent this, Ibicencan health authorities have 10,000 flu jabs available to inoculate the good citizens of the island, all 101,000 of them. If you do the maths this means that only a lucky 1 in 10 will get the jab, and top priority will be given to the old and infirm. So, if one day there are none of my articles in this section, you'll know I was one of the 9 in 10 who wasn't so lucky.
