Link is clean. Just a local news TV station in Nebraska. ABC affliate.

Thanks for sharing this story from Nebraska. I do not think I have ever been to that state, though my grandfather was from there.

There's nothing wrong with the link. :P
It's actually not entirely new I found out, it was only just recently new to the media there. It's not only that state, because there are people from the state that I live in, which is PA, whom are getting the very same virus; as well as many derivations of it.

I just thought it would be nice to alert the forum of it and my best regards to the users of Qhimm.
