A Sign Of The Times

I got three phone calls this weekend from the school where I work. The seniors graduated today (Sunday) but only family members could attend the commencement--no faculty, no staff members. There are confirmed cases of the flu on campus, and to prevent spreading, the school is cutting back on "socializing."

Do you remember a few years back that there was an outbreak of dog flu? I can't help but wonder if this flue strain jumped from pigs to humans, could it then jump to other species?

Let's just say I'm hoping for call #4 saying STAY HOME. I work in the cubicle farm, and it would be easy for a virus to spread in that environment.

Stay well. Take care.
