Despite public concern, swine flu will not affect this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo. Entertainment Software Association, E3's organizers, does not expect the illness to hinder the expo.

"The 2009 E3 Expo is progressing as planned," an ESA spokesperson said to MCV. "Public health officials are taking all appropriate steps and we continue to follow their direction on all measures. We look forward to a great event, and to seeing you in Los Angeles in June."

No companies have announced changes to their E3 plans due to the outbreak. Maybe they'll provide surgical masks to their booth babes.
