I think the EU was a bit premature in their recommendations. Esp the pork advisories. The source were infected people in Mexico who traveled. That's why most of the cases are based around the border and/ or major ports of entry(spring breakers). As Josh said, there are few cases in the States right now. There aren't any cases in Silicon Valley. The US gov't has been very proactive in containing the virus. Grab some hand sanitizer to kill the germs from those nasty folks that don't wash their hands and you should be fine.
