Flu Pandemic web site cautionary tale

Beware! Englands flu pandemic we site is a single use tool. What I mean to say is that if you check symptoms and reach the end page displaying a code, record it. You cannot repeat the questions to check you made the right diagnosis, it blocks multiple pass throughs.

Personally I question the sense in this. With such a serious condition it is only human nature to perhaps do as I did, doubt and go back, try again. Think of an elderley user or one not familiar with the web.

I suspect the framework for this site was rushed through and not properly considered.

If you reach the blocking message it advises contacting your GP. Sadly my practice were oblivious to this predicament and most unhelpful.
