But, she insisted there was no need to change any travel plans - because it is here already, or will be here ASAP. I guess she was right! But yeah, she just emphasized the need to keep physical distance from people (the flu isn't THAT contagious, someone coughing a few meters away from you shouldn't infect you), washing hands, and not touching your face. You do know it take 2 weeks for the vaccine to be effective, right??
