[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 267446, member: 84"] I'm wondering if that single person in ohio is truely a single person..........or just the only case that was actually reported. Not paranoid, just that's the way it works. I do know we've got a strain of "flu" in the area that is making people deathly sick and they're having one heck of a time throwing it off. Our ERs, doctor offices, and such have been packed. Not much you can do about it though. It's a virus. No way to kill it, no way to treat it. Except attempting to prevent dehydration. Not even a good way to prevent it. Not even by avoiding those who are sick, cuz people are usually most contagious before actually showing symptoms. So.....I'm keeping my eyes and ears open and refusing to worry too over much at this point. Reminds me of what my Mom refers to as the Asiatic flu back in the mid 60's. Bad outbreak. Caused my pre-mature birth and nearly killed my Mom. [/QUOTE]
