Swine Flu On Island?
Today we get an email from our medical insurer with facts about Swine Flu and this link:

I've gotten several calls from friends not wanting to go to Carnival Village or the activities because of the influx of people on Island from NY & TX. I thought all was good here and we would be safe....
Thoughts on this here in the VI?
You can track the flu here: http://www.cdc.gov/swineflu/?s_cid=swineFlu_outbreak_001
I wouldn't be concerned about catching the flu at carnival village since everything is held outdoors and there's lots of air circulation. I would be careful, just like I would be anywhere else, about handling money or shaking hands. (would wash my hands afterwards)
I would be much more concerned about flying on a plane and sitting near a sick person.

Will this flu affect the Beer Drinking Pigs at the Domino Club over in ST Croix??
No, they are just fine.

i'll refer you to another thread as well:
