I think if it happens, the feds are ready to do what they did at the last outbreak in 1977. They come in an vaccinate an entire population, stop all travel in and out, vaccinate anyone who has been in the area and quarantine. I for one plan if there is a single case to stay home, not answer the door, get my grandsons here as well as my daughter. Anyone who leaves the house other than to get vaccine won't be let back in. I am very serious. Then you just hunker down for a couple of months and wait it out. I do believe there are enough vaccine, 10 mill, to deal with epidemics. Would hate to see it tested.

You are on the right track. We live way out in the country. If we hear of more than a couple of cases then no visitors allowed until the epidemic clears. We call in sick to work for the first few days. Then take vacation, then call in sick, etc. Of course if the epidemic is bad after a week or two the bosses will finally be calling in sick themselves because they will be sick. :-( Nobody in, nobody out--and our Y2K provisions will be more than adequate.
