I mean, sure, the media is blowing it out of proportion. They always do. Excitement pays the bills, so they always have to be excited about something.
If you look at what actual people are doing about the flu, they're just being sensible. Washing hands, staying home if they feel unwell, planning for illness, etc. The real impact of the H1N1 scare is to get people to adhere to best practices that they should be observing all the time. A little fear is healthy, and I don't think things are panicky yet.
