Thank you for responding — definitely need to check my paranoia and get back in there, while being careful. Life definitely goes on. Appreciate your thoughts!

Flu is mostly transitted person to person, less so from germs on objects, so if I saw anyone with obvious sneezing or congestion, I would wander away and exercise farther away. Otherwise, it's life as normal. It's good for your immune system to stay fit!
yeah, this.
wipe down everything before you touch.

9:19 - people could probably be contagious before they realize they're sick.
Conversely, some people might look sick when they aren't. I have a sniffly nose all winter long - it starts running as soon as I come inside from the cold. I also have major foliage allergies every spring and fall. So someone seeing me blowing my nose might think I'm sick, but I'm not.

Usually if you have the flu you're not feeling well enough to go to the gym, no?

I probably have an irrational fear of this year’s flu, but I was wondering is anyone avoiding the gym, or changing their routine, to try to avoid the flu?
