if one school in the elmbrook district is closed why isnt other elmbrook schools closed, ecspecially if the tonawonda shool has siblings, the flu could spread.. that is not what anyone wants... i think everyone should have a couple days off to be safe.

When I first read this, I thought I was reading this in the Onion, but unfortuntely, it was not.
Will the school close because of mengitis next time, the measles, mumps or chicken pox? These are far more serious diseases than the pig flu, but they don't close the schools for that.
Thanks to the media and Obama administration for making this flu being overeacted to.
