I believe that the Japanese have really gone OTT about swine flu and are banning overseas travel. If you manage to get approval to travel outside Japan then on your return you are told to stay at home for at least 1 week.

For a nation whose culuture is all about team work this is absolute anathema.

PS look at JAL's results. Major losses.
