This summer one of our cousins was entertaining his large extended family down the way from us. (we never got down there because it was cold, and they are pretty noisy and "wild".)

So when we were closing up another cousin came by and told us, good thing we didn't visit. The whole bunch, and we are talking about 20 people over 3 wks coming and going there...all caught a "virus" from an Oklahoman little girl. I think it was Swine Flu...in July no less...totally unheard of for us!

I had a mild fever and bronchitis in late Feb myself! There was not much to it, I just took generic Mucinex DM, and never needed the doctor.

It appears that this "pandemic" warning is just to make alot of money for some people.

I am going to take my chances... wash hands alot, especially after shopping and going to public places, and hope for the best.
Our Kroger's has dispensers at the two entrances for wiping down the handles of the carts! Now that is a nice touch.
