Notes From the Nurse

E-mail error causes confusion

I must apologize for last week’s article on flu clinics at school. I inadvertently sent an old article to The Times from my home computer. We have already had our seasonal flu clinic this school year and I must have confused several parents with the news. Although I don’t consider myself technology impaired, I must admit I have more to learn when it comes to my personal computer.

I was cleaning out some old stuff in my accounts at home and must of creatively sent the article to my email and sent the note out when I was e-mailing other people. I will check my outbox more carefully from now on. Perhaps, I need to check my inbox on a daily basis as well. I would have caught a note the editor had sent to me regarding the article. Live, learn and keep learning, I say!
