Commercials and health reports like that bug me sometimes, too. I'm kind of used to them, but at the same time, sometimes they make me pick up a new "habit." I'm not particularly worried about the swine flu at this time, but the media likes to use fear to get everyone excited, and of course, spend money on things to "protect" themselves that might really just be overkill. There are certain reports or information that periodically comes up that I won't mention here, so as not to trigger anyone who might have the same issue as me, but it really gets on my nerves, because the things they suggest doing to protect yourself seems like overkill even for normal people, and I have to wonder how many normal people will pick up the habits these doctors and health experts recommend? More likely, those of us who are sensitive to such things will just go into overdrive.
