swine flu!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This seems to be the current hot topic of discussion for almost everybody!....But personally i feel that the actual problem is not the disease its the paranoia that's taking its rounds...people are so paranoid that they want to lock themselves up in a room and still be worried if someone sneezes because of dust!....I agree that taking precautions is mandatory in a situation where the disease is still unknown..but going over the top with it is just stupid!....The problem that is bound to arise with this hype about swine flu is that people will now not want to accept that they do have the symptoms and will want to shy away from getting the tests done...and that is going to be very difficult to handle then...so my plea to the media is that instead of giving number of deaths and creating a havoc, they should concentrate on giving proper information about the disease and the required precautions to be taken....
