I partly agree I don't think it's misinformation, more over-information and sensationaslist reporting by the media. With the first death outside of Mexico, the 23month baby in Texas (which borders with Mexico) I think we're all concerned at some level, but I feel many of the news agencies are taking it to the extreme and scarying the crap out of us!!!

Sayign that if the media just reported the official facts, no-one would watch the news cause it'd be boring! I tuned into Fox news last night and cor-blimey, they are sensational alright! By the time I stopped watching Fox news I believed we were on the edge of a 28days later scenario!!!

I'm supposed to be flying to Boston, US, on the 9th May, I'm tbh quite worried about doing so
