Just a short post to remind you that having an area declared state of emergency does not have to mean that you should panic. Most often it is used because by having it declared a state of emergency it is able to free up funds that normally would not be available. It also enables parts of local and federal government to more quickly obtain needed materials.
Although the swine flu is spreading, I believe our world governments so far are operating on a precautionary level. Better to be ready to handle the worst before it comes close to being at the worst.
I hate government interferance but when we are talking about a dangerous pandemic, I do think that they need to step in when the moment comes.
Many countries are quarintining people coming home from Mexico, or are considering it. I believe that’s an understandable step, however I don’t see how that will help the US or Canada, seeing as how we have so many illegals coming in over the border. We haven’t been able to stop that so far and I don’t think there’s any was to stop it now.
All I can tell you to do for now is WASH YOUR HANDS, COVER YOUR NOSE AND MOUTH, AND AVOID CROWDS.
