In times of crisis, it's nice to know our leaders are doing what they can to keep the public calm.

I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now. I would tell members of my family, and I have, I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now. It's not that it's going to Mexico, it's you're in a confined aircraft when one person sneezes it goes all the way through the aircraft. That's me. I would not be, at this point, if they had another way of transportation suggesting they ride the subway. If you're out in the middle of a field and someone sneezes that's one thing. If you're in a closed aircraft or a closed container or closed car or closed classroom it's a different thing. — Vice President Joe Biden, Today Show, 4/30/09
