Visit WhoIsSick to filter those who are sick in your area by sickness, symptoms and other data points that people have entered themselves on the site. The resulting mashup provides a current local health snapshot (depending on user participation in that area) and also would let parents, teachers etc get an idea of what sicknesses are affecting their area. WhoIsSick gives you many tools to search and analyze the data that is collected as well. Be sure to let this mashup know when your next cold or flu breaks to make it more useful for those in your community!

hmmmm... interesting, I came across a video about this site on CNET. I am no health buff but what intrigues is the fact this is not actually a mashup but user data driven site. So in essence they are letting input information in innovative way as opposed to traditional mashups that pull data from various sources.
there is also commenting features we just added to the site that allows people to leave comments on the site, allowing them to leave comments for specific sicknesses at www.whoissick.org
Interesting. I never knew there is such a thing. Is this still existing?
