Take a chill pill for swine flu

People need to chill out about the swine flu (H1N1). It seems as though everyone is frantically worried about the virus.

First of all, those with underdeveloped or frail immune systems should worry more about the sickness. Otherwise, teens and adults should not fret over it.

There are thousands of deaths to other sicknesses in the world, but there isn't too much news coverage about that.

Also, schools in Illinois close because of one confirmed case. Because of this, kids annoyingly complain about why some schools shut their doors while their own school is still open.

Then there are more ridiculous people who constantly joke about having the swine flu.

Really, it's absolutely unnecessary. People, just relax. Wash your hands and be careful of your surroundings.
