Schools/ MOE and parents are usually very careful. If there are outbreak in surrounding area, I think they will call off those trips. Kids' school was planning for Japan but due to the earthquake, radiation, etc... they dropped the idea.

Heard her family got it too. Subsequently another who didn't go but is close to this person got it and she is on mc.
Dd was having stomach flu recently and she probably got it from her friends. Doc said it is airborne. -
Schools usually ask parents to fill in a form to find out travel plans during the school holidays.
