Thanks Bob,
I've been reading similar statistics. With help, I believe most
individuals will be Okay. Discussed with a hiking partner (also my
physician) who pointed out that you'd get fairly sick. Trouble may
come when in a remote area alone. Then, dragging a sore limb while
feeling sick wouldn't be fun.

I guess that's the chance we take when we enjoy the outdoors. Best
protection appears to be good judgment and awareness.
