While some moms have expressed deep concern, other moms have stressed that it's best to avoid panic, and to take steps to prepare for various scenarios.

"I'm going to take precautions and purchase masks and hand sanitizers, and probably go to Costco to buy an extra set of necessities," wrote one mom who goes by the screen name MusubiGirl. "If I won't use it now, at least I will be prepared for hurricane season."
