I'm just curious if the swine flu effected anyone's travel plans? Or did you get exposed to the virus during traveling? Reply to this

Hello Laszlo 😊

I don't know if I was exposed to it or not. I never get my flus analysed. 😉

But, I dont think one needs to travel to be exposed. I live in Munich, and near the airport too, so I suppose being in such a popular tourist town would likely expose me to flus that travellers bring from other countries.

Aloha LAszlo, I went to Costa Rica and Nicaragua August of this year. The day I left I heard the news about the president of Costa Rica being affected by the swine flu. i got a bit scared, but I roamed around cr and nica safe and healthy. I got the normal flu when I got back to the USA. Actually, Mell is right, here in LA there are numerous cases of swine flu. I'm more scared to leave my house to go to LA than to go to another country. 😊 Reply to this
