Oh no!

First things first...Im ok. Now that's been said, I'm at the hospital in Tripoli with the rest of my class. This morning almost everyone woke up sick, including our professor (again I wasnt sick) and that put us about 2 hours behind schedule. After riding for about an hour, more and more people kept getting sick on the bus, we had to stop 2 times so people could get off and puke. Swine flu has just been declared a pandemic in Greece so we were required to go to the hospital and get checked out. About 12 of us are ok, outside waiting for results. The other 15 people are inside getting iv's and getting blood work done. A greek news crew is sitting here filming this process. We are staying the night in Tripoli, eating bland food and getting some sleep. Only one person has to stay the night and that is mainly because of dehydration.

Ill keep you updated.
