<p>Mi hijo, que tiene 10 años, examina el mapa meteorológico todos los días y le encanta la combinación de predictibilidad (temperaturas más frías en el invierno) e impredecibilidad (50 por ciento de probabilidad de lluvia). Una combinación similar ocurrió este año con la temporada de gripe. Por un lado tenemos la gripe común, que usualmente se intensifica en enero y febrero, y luego prácticamente desaparece durante el verano. Por otro, existe la impredecibilidad de la gripe H1N1 o gripe porcina.</p>
