phones ringing off the hook at the clinic this am....seems a mother had visited Mexico, then brought her 5-yo son to a birthday party over the weekend . . . ...whoo-boy, panic central. I hear nice voices talking on the phone explaining what's in the news patiently... . . "Yes, Ma'am, only one death in the entire United States...yes ma'am....no ma'am, we are not recommending quarantine at this time..." Yet Iowans are reasonable people, and the din was limited to a few yahoos who boarded up their windows and are hunkered down, shotguns in hand, for anything that moves in the grass. The police have been dispatched to diffuse the situation.
