The Capt that I relieved 2 weeks ago on this vessel, apparently "freaked out" over the Swine Flu!!

I have pulled stored dustmasks out of every stateroom, Galley/Messdeck, Pilothouse, etc, etc!!!! I have no clue why he prepositioned dustmasks everywhere. 1 crewman had allergy sniffles and this Capt was on the phone to the main office trying to have the "Swine Flu Victim" removed from the boat before he could infect everybody else.

I believe the MSM over hyped the situation very dramatically!

The crew on here definitely had a flu drill, filled with a great deal of "faulty info", IMO.
