I think that the Swine Flu has the potential to be a serious issue, but it is not there yet. The worst thing that people can do is panic and run to the Emergency Room for a cough. Also, I think that Wisconsin should worry even LESS than other states (such as ones in the south like New Mexico and Arizona – both adjacent to Mexico.) There really isn’t a big risk up here. The best precaution to take, according to a ton of people, is just to wash your hands, cover your sneezes and coughs…etc. etc. Just normal hygiene habits (at least hopefully normal). The idea that schools are closing down just because Swine Flu could be around is ridiculous. Do they think that if school kids have time off, they will all stay home? No, kids will still be around their friends, just not in school.
Also, why do people freak out over 20 people when other things like AIDS or cancer has taken MANY more lives than 20. Those are big issues, they just don't have all the media attention right now, so they don't seem as serious.
