I have family that lives in eastern Tennessee and after talking to them this weekend I am definitely in shock. There is a news story that NO ONE in the major media seems to be reporting on and I can't figure out why. What would you do if your school was closed for the flu? How about if it was closed for 6 out of the last 11 days?Now before anyone starts to panic, officials have said that the numbers of cases are not above normal. So why were 18 school systems in Tennesse closed Thursday and Friday for the flu?
Here is a link to a local news story:
