Swine Flu iPhone App Home“There’s an app for that” has never been more true.

Not only are Macs being used to track the Influenza A(H1N1) virus (formerly “Swine Flu”) on the desktop, but it’s now being used to track the deadly virus on the iPhone too.

TechCrunch reports that IntuApps‘ Swine Flu Tracker for the iPhone is waiting for approval from Apple for release into the App Store. TechCrunch has posted screenshots from the app which allows you to see the current threat level, a map showing confirmed and suspected cases, a list of symptoms and an alert page for breaking news on Swine Flu.

Um, yeah.

If you were to buy an Apple tablet, which model would you choose?
