JT>Did you get any notification about the danger while the situation was
JT>going on, or did you find out after it was contained?  I always
        I'll bet you didn't! The military isn't about to let anyone in
        on anything....Did you by any chance see Stephen King's "The
        Stand"? About how a megavirus got off a military base and how
        quickly it spread through the country? Also, by alerting the
        people that a potentially deadly agent was loose and infectious,
        people went into a blind panic and ran. One got off base and
        spread the epidemic. I'm sure that is why info is contained
        until it is all over and done with.
wonder JT>if the public would actually be notified so we could protect
ourselves JT>from something horrible like that.  If the virus had been
        Actually, I doubt there is much we could do to protect
        ourselves. Depends on the strain and how that particular strain
        is transmitted.
