We are Americans, we are a tough and rough people, we have gotten thru much worse than 26 cases of a virus !! WITHOUT CLOSING DOWN OUR TOWN !! of course none of you were at the helm then were you? stop your panic and do something sane for a change, calm down and stand down your "state of emergency", and keep yourself under control until such time as we really do have a state of emergency and will really need that help. in the mean time, stop crying wolf. i would welcome the opportunity to talk to you about this. please call me anytime.
