Welshcare

12:10 PM -- Forget vodka, Tovarich. Britain's Metro Website reports on the latest advance in Russian healthcare:

Russian football fans are being urged to drink whisky when visiting Wales next month for a World Cup qualifier - in order to avoid swine flu.

'Welsh whisky is on offer to Russian supporters as a disinfectant,' Alexander Shprygin, the head of the Russia national team's fan club, said. 'This will relieve any symptoms.'

Or it'll make you forget any symptoms, which is just as good.
