    I've been reading about people not flying and going to certain public places. Its worrying me but, I really don't know what I should be doing or more specifically, not doing?

    We are all being extra careful about any health issues. I feel for both the people suffering with this and for the farmers who could easily be devestated by this.

    I have been washing my hands a lot more than usual; I also got a bottle of hand sanitizer for my desk at work. I just want to do my best to keep the germs away!

    We are doing what we've always done, using Clorox wipes, lots of handwashing. I'm concerned but I cannot stop living either.

    Regular hand washing is a must, but if you don't live in an area with active outbreaks, then this hyper germ phobia is uncalled for!

    We are washing our hands and talking as a family about not sharing germs. We are using Clorox wipes and we just went to stock up on TP and diapers in case places shut down. They are talking about closing our schools here. That makes me think more is going on then we know about, but like another poster said I can't stop living by worrying about this.

    I'm worried about it but not in an area where theres been an out break so we are washing hands frequently but for now I dont see any reason to do anything else!
