I go to a very cheap gym (that is all I can afford right now) so after using any equipment I clean off before and after myself with Clorox Wipes. I was wondering if it is healthy to go to a gym which is closed with lots of people working out and sweating especially with the H1N1 virus problem? I know this question may sound silly and I do apologize for sounding a bit paranoid, but I really need some advice. Anyone? Everyone? Thanks.

I don't think there's any need to be paranoid about H1N1. Follow the same cleaning procedures as always, and you'll be fine.
IMHO, H1N1 is only a big deal because the media made it so. If you look at the symptoms, how is it different from regular flu? The media doesn't report on regular flu numbers, but I am sure it spreads at the same rapid rate, it's only because we have very specfic numbers that people get scared and panic. And yes, people die from regular flu, if you have a compromised immune system.
Live healthy, and stop worrying.

I think it is very considerate of you to wipe down your equipment.
