My first reaction was happiness, but my second reaction was hesitation. I feel like our government is taking too slowly to respond to massive outbreaks like these. It took tainted tomatoes, pistachios, peanut butter paste, cookie dough and beef for our administration to FINALLY do something about it (and these were just in the past couple of years!). For something that affects EVERYONE -- man, woman, child, young, old, blue-collar, white-collar, homeless, etc., I expected a faster response and a better reaction from our government regarding issues that lead to widespread sickness and sometimes death.
