Rachel Maddow: I Had Swine Flu

Last night on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, Rachel Maddow revealed that her weeklong absence from her show was due to the swine flu. Maddow: “I went and I got diagnosed and I got the special swine flu drugs. I’m better. I had it. It’s over. It’s done. It’s the predominant strain of flu now. First my girlfriend got it and then I got it. It’s just like a really stanky flu.” Fallon then reached for the hand sanitizer on his desk.
