No... But here's my almost-complete review.

Missed out on the opening theme, that's why I say almost-complete.
The two kids come up to "Bird", wondering what's the matter.
Bird: I don't feel well.
Then the actor (me thinks Harry Black) playing Gordon comes in...
Gordon: What's the matter Bird?
Bird: I'm not feeling well, I just got back from vacation.
Gordon: Where did you go?
Bird: I was visiting some of my relatives in southern Asia.
Gordon: Uh-oh, seems you got the bird flu.

Gordon and the kids then launch into song, with the scientific name of the Asian Bird Flu set to the tune of ABCDEFGHI.

Next, is the part where a cartoon voice was saying a few words, guess it was a spoof of the Electric Company.
Voice: Flu, blanket...

Then there's the part with Cookie Monster. He comes in and spots some chicken on a plate.
CM: Hey, what that? Smell like chicken. That not cookies, me not "Chicken" monster, me Cookie Monster.
After thinking about it, CM: What the hey... Me eat anything anyway.
He eats it and then...
CM: Me not feel good. Me feel chilly, me feel cold...
And then he throws up.

The kids, still with Bird ask about the flu and say maybe Bob will know what to do. The actor playing Bob comes in and says "Kids, I didn't want you to have to see this..."
And there are the dead Muppets...

Kids: Bert? Ernie? Grover?
The last one was a particular high-voiced laugh, with a bit of a last cough, known to all as Elmo.
Then Bob starts singing "Everybody's infected in the neighborhood..."
The kids want to hug Bird to make him feel better, with Gordon shouting for them not to do so. Bird sneezes and gets the kids wet...
Gordon says I'm sorry old friend... And then he lights Bird on fire to end the threat.
Bird: Oh well... Good bye kids! The sketch ends with a final explosion.

Then we get Grover's voice saying: Sesame Street has been brought to you by the letter P, for Pandemic."
And it wraps up with the shot at Statler and Waldorf...
We're sure going to get a lot of letters about that one.
As if anyone who watches this show knows how to read or write.

Had me laughing so hard... Hope this helps.
