They have already closed down numerous schools in some of the cities in Texas because there was an outbreak. And of course I'm sure you all know about the 23 month old from here in Texas that died because of this Flu.  And now they are saying that even the mask's that everyone has been wearing over their faces are no good. If wearing one, you need to change it at least every hour as your breath makes the mask moist and with the mask being moist it can hold and actually "trap" the all the germs.
My hubby does work at alot of the doctors offices here and he said that ALL OVER their computers are web sites about the Swine Flu and sticky notes all over the offices about it as well. He talked to some of the doctors and they said that they have been SWAMPED with people coming in thinking that they have it - everyone is just so freaked out. He said that SO FAR no one here has it, but all the offices are on high alert. I am just sooo terrified by this Flu...  |
Dear, I know its crazy times but I would just go on with your life but be a little more careful about washing your hands. I live near Dallas and work for a Large Delivery Company and handle pkgs coming from Mexico and other countries and we have no worry about this. Its going to be ok....Peace to everyone....
