Postcard from the epicenter

My colleague at VCU, Dr. Richard Wenzel, arrived in Mexico City yesterday to consult with the Mexican Ministry of Health on the influenza epidemic there. In a short email from him late last night he wrote:
Only 15 percent of seats filled on the flight from Atlanta to Mexico City, and the airport is almost empty. All waiters wear masks, and at dinner I had to have a skin probe to measure temperature and hands out for alcohol. But shops are beginning to open up.
