Our family got off scott free. I work in retail, so I knew I would probably get exposed. I developed the habit of always washing my hands when I went back to the staff room, and again when I got home. I tried to learn to never touch my face. I bought some extra water and groceries just in case we needed to stay indoors.
A woman who was off on maternity leave and lives about 2 km from my house got the first case of swine flu in a pregnant woman in Canada. They have no idea how she got exposed. She was healthy in the docs office for a regular visit one day, and was hospitalized in intensive care 2 days later. Mom and baby are both healthy now, but it was scary.
