Who the hell is Sean Rushforth?

I have just posted a blog entry on swine flu. Within minutes of the post, I received a response from Sean Rushforth with a link taking me to the NHS swine flu web page. So who is Sean Rushforth? Well click on his name and you are taken to the NHS swine flu web page. Spooky. The NHS Swine Flu campaign is clearly monitoring political blogs. But why post the comments from Sean Rushforth? Who the hell is he?

UPDATE: Sean Rushforth is from a company selling flu drugs – I foolishly mistook the website for the NHS site – which I accept is not very bright of me. Note to self: don’t write about health issues again. For those that are interested in purchasing Tamiflu, I recommend Flubay.

He's got nothing to do with the NHS. It's a private firm that is trying to engage with (potential) customers online.

Agh, that explains why they were so efficient! I just had a quick look at it and assumed it was the NHS special website that's been set up on swine flu. It has that type of feel to it.
