She is fine.
I'm getting a bit pissed off with the "panicky" emails and facebook
messages though. We've gone through all this crap before with SARS
etc. This morning I got a "panic panic panic" message from a former
French student warning that the flu was going to arrive in Japan, via
Aichi, "because of the Brazilians" etc. WTF? The Brazilians aren't
flying in at the moment, there haven't been any lab confirmed cases in
Brazil at all, and if this thing is going to come in, it will be
carried in by a Japanese host. As always.
