MERS: A day in the life....

[acparsons]

SK has been on edge about a potential MERS problem. It made it my city of Daejeon. Fortunately, the people are being a bit more cautious, but not panicked. I braved the concern today to get some shots. About 1 in 4-5 people were wearing a mask, people here often wear masks when ill, but today it was a preventative measure.

For some the face-masks seemed more like a novelty.

Older people seem a bit more worried.
