We haven't seen an new case since April 19, so it's not spreading. The current few handful of cases are quarantined in the hospitals. There's virtually no risk of catching it.

So, you should find out what that means in terms of odds and make a realistic evaluation of your risk. There's far greater chance you'll die from the flight or car drive due to an accidental crash.

You realize there's over 10,000 deaths annually due to influence in the US? IMO we were lucky that this thing didn't spread as much as it did, and now the fear is blown all out of proportion.
