Just read an article that there were caes in South Carolina with the Swine Flu.....My fiance and I were going to visit on may 8th to check out areas before we decide to move. Now were thinking twice about it. This flus scaring the crap out of us and may reconsider this visit! Has anyone heard anything down there about this???
not really... But I think it will be everywhere by the time it's over. Just be careful if your sick to see a doctor. It is treatable and can be diagnosed early. I did read an article about it being in found at a school in Newberry SC. That is about 2.5 hours away.
I checked all of the local news sources, and all I have found is that a school in Newberry closeddown today after the senior class came back from Mexico...
"Meanwhile, officials of Newberry Academy in South Carolina said Monday that seniors from the school were in Mexico earlier this month and some had flu-like symptoms when they returned."
Newberry is about 2 hours away from Charleston. If you are flying through an area that actually has an outbreak you may want to reroute your trip.
Don't be afraid to wear a mask while on the airplane. That will be the most "dangerous" place you'll encounter...that and the crowded airport. Otherwise, practice good hygiene and enjoy your trip.
