Not bad, but not good.

The World Health Organization raised it to a Phase 4.  The U.S. stll has it at Stage 0, but expect that to go up tomorrow.

P.S.  Yes, I know I'm blogging about this a lot.  I don't think we're at death's door, or the fall of civilization is imminent.  I just like the subject matter (I took a class in epidemilology once).  I understand that mass media is going apeshit over it, basically trying to get everyone to believe that we'll all die tomorrow.  Well, it IS sweeps week.
