Talk about yer knee-jerk reactions!

In our case, fewer than 20 students had flu symptoms. They had not been to Mexico. Two of them did have a positive test for "some flu." I remember very few school closings from the outbreaks of flu every winter that kill thousands.

Anyway, the full tests came back late Friday, no Swine Flu. Game played Saturday night. School open today.

OTOH, in a county 80 miles away, 15 people actually DO have confirmed cases of Swine Flu (most of them had been to Mexico, and the others by contact with them). They're shutting down contests for all the schools in the county.
