Message: [QUOTE="msf22b, post: 3473114, member: 656"] Interesting that no one rose to your bait. The problem is that too few people have been tested, nationwide (through no fault of their own) to know how prevalent and widespread the virus is within the general population. I think that the "panic" you note is not so much media driven, rather by professionals and knowledgable policy makers who have studied the spread of such pathogens and are scared stiff that we already have widespread, community infection. And it is clear that in my case with a recent heart operation and a seasonal sinus infection, I would be a dead duck if infected. This is very much a board of seniors who have to take reasonable precautions. Taking the position that this is a "plot"or some form of hysteria will likely not play here. [/QUOTE]
