Either there is something large going on in Eastern Europe or someone is overreacting.

Two days ago we saw an unidentified flu strain showing up in the Ukraine, today we see Romania is placing all hospitals under quarantine.

Romania’s Health Ministry Monday decided to place under quarantine all hospitals in the country, announced State Secretary Adrian Streinu-Cercel.
According to him, separate emergency wards will be opened to exclusively treat people with flu symptoms.
Starting this week, antiviral medicines will be delivered to hospitals, which will also get additional funding for purchasing surgical masks and disinfectants.

I’m trying to find more information on this but have been unable to thus far.  I find it interesting that Eastern European countries are having such an extreme reaction to the swine flu.
