Fortunately, some reports have stated that no one is seriously injured.  

"The earthquake struck at 18:30 local time (11:30 GMT). Buildings in the capital swayed for almost a minute as the quake built in intensity. There are no reports of serious damage. No tsunami alert was issued. "

However, here in CA, no 9.8 earthquakes have been felt. 

A 9.8, would be felt far, far beyond CA (Japan's was felt in a ~2500km radius and it was a 9.0) 

Ye - Yeah, that's right! I knew that! I live in CA after all, so I should know everything about earthquakes. I mean I live near a precarious fault line so I need to know everything in case the big one hits!

...

I should really brush up my knowledge about earthquakes...
