yes, the public health officials have a hard task. They want to warn (probably for liability mostly) but then they have to make crazy recommendations!
Our state has had an outbreak of another very rare but very lethal disease called EEE (eastern equine encephalitis) It obviously hits horses but also hits other animals. It rarely causes problems in humans but when it does they almost always die. It rivals ebola in its lethal hit rate, and it also is mosquito borne.
Several counties south of us have had cases, deaths and ongoing warnings in the news. Today the health depts. in several counties warned everyone to 'avoid outdoor activities'
That is a pretty scary and open-ended warning. How does a responsible parent balance that warning with the true risk especially since mosquitos move and we don't know much the disease or why only a few people contract it?
