I was looking at articles on H1N1 yesterday. Two people in China may have died due to the vaccination. A local medical center is buying gallons of hand sanitizer monthly. I've heard of schools cleaning door knobs multiple times throughout the day with germ killing chemicals. To get to the restroom at work, I need to open three doors one way. That's a lot of germ infested door knobs to touch.
Pkin and I were at Costco, at check out the family behind us had two preteen girls who were sneezing. No hands were covering mouths and I didn't see a tissue anywhere. Pkin moved us to the front of the cart - so there were only sneezing on our purchases.
Wow! All this stuff can make you crazy. Do you wear a mask? How much hand sanitizer should you use? How can you not shake hands? I heard something about elbow bumping as an alternative. Heck, I'm ready to wave only.
i told you the remedy...give them dirty looks, and tell them to keep their "germans" in their proximity!!!

I work with folks who are really kind, wonderful people. But even they show up to work sick. Coughing, moaning because they don't feel good. What compels us to go out in public like that? I've been working from home when it gets really bad at work just to keep from getting infected.
