We should have a list of all the states that have started school already and see what kind of an impact that has.

At least in my county, all the schools are in session. I think some started more than a week ago.

Hi
I did search for h1n1 and school. On friday, the were school closing or having 20% absentee in Florida, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Indiana and Alaska. All the information was in regional paper. All my reference are at work. If I have time, I will try to redo my search.
