I actually agree in that a lot of this tripe is ridiculous.

What I have to ask is...
Why the hell does every right-wing, libertarian, or general sky-is-falling website have the EXACT SAME advertisements about self-defense, crappy vitamin supplements, end-of-the-world preparedness, and how the liberals are taking over and you can only protect yourself if you BUY MY BOOK.

I mean, it really doesn't say much for the sanity (or intelligence) of their readers.

Because the left wing sites are the exact same way. Everyone is trying to sell you something, and if they don't admit it, they're lairs too.
I'm all about being prepared for worst case scenarios, but there's pragmatism and there's paranoia. The line can be a fine one and this whole pandemic thing goes way over that line.

I'm all for that. Its a damn flu. No need to get out the duct tape and start sealing yourselves in. Though it does mean less traffic on the roads, so by all means crazy people, keep to your homes.

(Also, I don't read the left-wing sites either. Extremism either way is pretty ridiculous. OMG WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE UNLESS WE STOP DRIVING CARS RIGHT THIS INSTANT.)

Try working in a hospital.
People keep coming into the ER claiming they have the swine flu.
No one has tested positive yet.
SO. ANNOYING.
