Thanks for that bit of perspective! The news likes to scare everyone - they claim to be keeping people informed but it seems more like they are panicking people instead.

Very good point Diana. In fact my husband had just told his 93 year old Aunt the same thing, that thousands of people die from regular flu each year and she shouldn't panic over this. Of course she's watching FOX news, so she's all in a tither. She's worried because I'm flying on Saturday. Sigh.

Thank you for that information- I will spread that around (then wash my hands ~LOL).

I am so ANNOYED with the news right now.
