If you look at the CDC data, this bug is supposed to be in epidemic proportions around the USA.

Well guess what ... I live in So. California and I don't know even ONE person who's had it. Not even one. The company where I work has nearly 4,000 people - I have not heard of anyone getting it. My church probably has 800-1,000 people - but I have not heard of anyone getting it. Not even one person with a diagnosis of H1N1.

Beats me what's going on.
Media paranoia maybe.

Wait for it.

My Mom came down with assumed H1N1. It came on like a train about 1 week ago, and is still not over. In a household with a grandaughter and daughter, still waiting for it it spread, but daughter is an RN and has been good about taking precautions. It really wiped out Mom, and requires alot of basic care - my sister has been calling in sick to care for her. Various of us kids looking in, providing some primary care. No matter what, its serious when someone you know has caught it.

So the pandemic is real, just not in your neck of the woods yet.
