I wasn't going to the National anyway (see Adam's great response to not going to AC). That said, we can only hope this will be over by then. I am in the camp of it not being the major plague that many are estimating. I think it is a new virus that probably comes back year after year, just like influenza, but with lower sickness totals. There could be mutants of it but that is also common for these types of viruses, from what is being said. I think it's good to take all precautions and do what we can to prevent the spreading of it but paranoia isn't going to help.
