My own take is that currently the risk is very low. Doesn't seem to be much person-to-person spread and so unless you are filming near chicken farms or markets I personally wouldn't be too concerned. But obviously worth keeping an eye on in case the situation changes. You may also want to get hold of some Tamiflu to take along with you as a precaution. Unclear how well it would work, but it's probably the best shot at a treatment right now. (It would likely also work prophylactically, but I've never heard of anyone taking it for an extended period). All advice FWIW - I'm neither a doctor nor a public health expert. Peter
