My fiancee and I both got ragingly sick (hours after he proposed, haha!) less than a week before the swine flu really hit the media outlets, and it lingered for weeks. Between the travel he' done through a couple international airports shortly before and the fact that Ithaca got hit by H1N1 early on and has continued to be hit hard, I still look back and wonder a bit. I am still on the fence abut the shot for myself, and feel that the vet clinics in the area who have been having "flu shot clinics" for dogs are capitalizing on the current flu fear.
