3 New Suspected Cases in Virginia

[Ms. Toad]

21. Definitely -

I'm just suggesting that, even as reputable as Johns Hopkins is, it isn't a good source for information about suspected cases in the US.

In the meantime, I'll keep doing the same thing that's kept me largely cold and flu free for more than a decade: Wash frequently, never touch a surface with my bare hands (unless it's a faucet pre-washing). I had upcoming surgery and bosses who liked to pretend they weren't sick (so they just kept coming into work). Since I couldn't afford to get a respiratory infection, I started being scrupulously careful. It worked so well (thorugh two surgeries - with one or both bosses ill in advance of each one) that I've kept it up. I may have had the influenza once between then and now, and get one mild (3-day) cold about every other year.
