Look for Calls to Close the Southern Border
I expect that there will be some calls to limit the number of people who come to the United States from Mexico. I think that since it seems that this outbreak came from Mexico there will be bigger calls for immigration reform in the United States.

1. If it gets worse, travel restrictions may be appropriate.
However, I fear that there may also be an inappropriate backlash against Mexican immigrants in some places.

3. Well, if all those kids hadn't gone to Mexico on spring break,
then none of this would have happened. Maybe Mexico should build a fence to keep us out!:evilgrin:

4. We were looking at Cozumel in August
for a family vacation. So glad I procrastinated booking - Florida is looking much better right now!
