I hope at some point, medical experts are brought in to help run scenarios. Quarantines aren't likely to work, since flu victims usually become symptomatic days after they are infectious. So, apparently healthy people will walk around spreading the flu... I'm going to try to get a flu shot before going to SEMA.

In my experience, large shows and conventions (and airline flights to get to them) have been very effective distribution points for the flu.

Edit: I was listening to Dr Dean Edell yesterday, and according to him, one flu that will likely strike this year is a Northern California strain that he (Edell) apparently contracted last year. He said it was the sickest he'd ever been in his life.
