I am sure this is pure overkill but.....

How Can Individuals and Families Prepare? Experts emphasize that personal hygiene is the most important preventative measure. Therefore, you can immediately prepare by following the guidelines below:

• Limit the spread of germs and prevent infection by practicing good hand and respiratory hygiene;
• Wash hands frequently with soap and water or an alcohol-based cleaner;
• Cover coughs and sneezes with tissues;
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick; and
• Stay home from work and school if you are sick or have flu symptoms, and especially if you have a fever.

  Stay informed - Monitor the CDC web site for the latest information.   Centers for Disease Control travel information relating to swine influenza, including preventive measures, is available at http://www.cdc.gov/swineflu/  

Yesterday the director where I work sent out a very formal email about this situation and ended her comment with "there have been no confirmed cases of the wine flu in Maine."  I replied to her and let her know that us Mainers call the wine flu a hangover. LOLOLOL

LMAO...that was too funny!
