Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius took advantage of a “teachable moment” when NBC reporter Chuck Todd sneezed during a recent press conference.
“Bless you. What was that about?” She said in response to the sneeze. “Give that man some Purel!”
She then demonstrated correct sneeze etiquette and suggested that Mr. Todd could use a special briefing from Elmo, the Muppet.
(Sesame Street has teamed up with the federal agency to produce some public service announcements in response to the H1N1 influenza epidemic.)















Oh! I am laughing out loud that is funny! Sec. of HHS and the Muppet must run in the same circles.
