VP Biden says don't fly or be in confined spaces. I'm worried about getting the swine flu. Should I cancel my flight? Should I wear a mask?

Yes.
If you're just visiting, no, don't worry.
If you're thinking of moving here, then yes, the Swine Flu is running rampant here. Better to just stay the f**k out of my city and state.
are you a mexican baby?
if so, don't take that flight
I agree with the above posters. In addition to h1n1, there are dozens of other strains of flu that are equally deadly. It's not safe for you here, bambino.

you're more likely to die by getting crushed by a falling tree
Are we transmitting? ARE WE TRANSMITTING?!? Ok, things are out of control, the city of Los Angeles is like a war zone...these creatures, these zombies or whatever the hell they are are swarming the city. People are dying in the streets by the thousands. If you're reading this, stay away from Los Angeles, the city is out of control, THE CITY IS LOST, avoid Los Angeles at all costs...

Yes! This is happening with regularity. Palm trees have shallow roots!

Cancell? Are you nuts? Ok little girl, don't be scared. There are thousands upon thousands of people flying today and tomorrow and the next day. I really don't think they're worried sick like you're making yourself out to be. Get a grip and take some Tamiflu. Geez.
No. Do not cancel your flight. If you're going to get this flu, NOW might be the time to get it. For whatever reason, Americans who have gotten this flu haven't been near as sick as those in Mexico, and the CDC doesn't know why this is. Flu can come in waves, and in past pandemics, initial waves weren't as bad as later ones (best to not get it at all though). While this could turn out to be nothing more an average illness, it is still a good idea to be prudent...wash your hands frequently...use hand sanitizer...don't put your fingers in your mouth (many people are nail biters; good time to quit that disgusting habit; many people lick their fingers when eating; stop that too).

Yes. I would not fly. The chance of the 2009 H1N1 virus killing you are very slim. But having the flu sucks.
