Should people avoid visiting New York with kids this summer 2009 due to the swine flu?
Having heard the NJ, NY schools have warned that the second wave of the H1N1 has arrived and may have the third wave, should people avoid visiting New York with kids right now?
Medical experts and NONE New Yorkers opinions are probably more advisable. Please provide your comments.

Oh, god, no. It's just the flu, almost nobody has died from it, and the whole thing has been blown out of proportion.
Come and have a good time.

NO not at all. Millions of people live in and visit NYC on a daily basis - and don't have swine flu. My sure they are clean, don't put their hands to their faces, and wash their hands before they eat. I'd be more concerned with a winter visit as more people are in enclosed places and share the same air. Swine flu makes great news... there are a lot of other things that can make you sick. If it were such a problem nobody would come to NYC and people living there would move out.

like "bookish" said, its just a flu....I have family who live in the area where the schools have been closed and they didn't get sick....just make sure u wahs ur hands before you eat, dont put your finger in your mouth...simple and u wont get sick.

Less than .01% of the NY/NJ population has confirmed cases of the swine flu.

Not unless you're also going to keep them inside the house all summer with no visitors allowed!! It's just the flu - people with compromised immune systems or other risk factors die from the flu every year, not just from the "swine" flu. Your kids are exposed to germs everyday - at the mall, at school, with their friends, etc, etc.
