My information about the swine flu situation comes from two sources:

1) the WHO web site and the people who link to it

2) LJ and Facebook people going AAAAAAH NOBODY PANIC! STOP PANICKING! SERIOUSLY, CUT IT OUT RIGHT NOW!

Has anybody seen anybody panicking? The news may be full of stories describing panic; note the total lack of traditional news media in my info list above. Has anyone here seen or talked to someone who was off their nut about it?

I am definitely a bit worried? But I'm also pretty well prepared, in fact I would wager that we're pretty darn well prepared to treat the reported symptoms, if anyone here gets sick.

That made me feel less worried, once the shopping was done, in fact getting the masks from Medex last night was my final preparedness thing and it was a huge *phew!*

Now it's just, what will be, will be, so be careful out there.

I guess that's closer to how I feel. I've heard that many of the confirmed H1N1 (H5N1? Now I'm confusing myself) cases out there are experiencing perfectly reasonable mild-ish flu symptoms. I'd rather not have the flu, personally, but honestly I'd never rather have the flu, so there you have it.
