Why I care about the Flu

[NMDemDist2]

I work at a VERY popular tourist destination very close to the Mexican border and daily come into close contact with literally thousands of people of all ages from abroad, Mexico and the US.

Today I had 150 students from an El Paso High School here, up close and personal as well as two full tour buses in addition to our usual 1000 visitors a day. Guess the Hi School kids made it just under the wire of Texas closing down all these kinds of activities.

I'm not laughing a bit. our Admin Asst. today went on a special (unscheduled) shopping trip for Lysol spray, Clorox wipes and a couple cases of hand gel.

if it goes much further down this road, we'll all be laid off when they close the facility til the flu subsides.

it's not funny for some of us.
