And, I just received this in an e-mail from Kaiser (2 hours ago): Changes to hospital visitor policy

Because of the unusual nature of this year's flu season, we have also revised our hospital visitation policies to help protect the health of our patients, staff, other visitors, and the community. Based on clinical evidence that children are especially susceptible to the H1N1 virus, we are temporarily prohibiting hospital visitors 14 years of age or under. After considerable study, we determined that this increased level of protection is warranted. In addition, visitors to the hospital are prohibited if they have a fever higher than 100 degrees, a cold or sore throat, and/or any other flu-like symptoms.
