    I also had posted this in a couple of threads at TA since some there were saying that the quote (the 10% from Mexico) hadn't come from the CDC...

    According to the "CDC Briefing on Investigation of Human Cases of H1N1 Flu
    May 7, 2009, 12 noon EST"

    Dr. Richard Besser, acting director of the CDC, did indeed state, "Only about 10% of confirmed cases have a travel history from Mexico."

    And more... worth the read, IMO.
