I agree it is being blown out of proportion.  I didnt realize that until after the fact that I put reflective plastic on my windows, sealed all air leaks and vents in our house.  Even bought a new furnance that had an allergy filter on it. We have even installed a decontamination device at our doors at work and home for people who come and go.  What a waste of money.  Oh well.  Oh and dont forget, dont let your kids eat dirt.

I think what's freaking people out is the deaths in Mexico.  The thing they don't realize is that the health conditions in Mexico and the health conditions in the US are completely different.  I wouldn't be shocked if most of the deaths in Mexico were in someone with poor living conditions and inadequate health care.

The rest of the world does not have the living conditions or health care standards that we have here in the US. I agree with Tyler, probably very poor relatively isolated parts of the country. 

There is a suspected case at the hospital in my hometown.  It was on Atlanta news tonight

Let me clarify.  I didn't mean to imply that the US was the ONLY place that has high standards.
