Letter on swine flu

Dear Editor,
I find it silly and uninformed that the authorities are trying to allay fears about H1N1 that are unfounded. So far the swine flu appears to be even milder than the seasonal flu and less people are expected to die from it than the seasonal flu.
Furthermore, WHO estimates two billion people will be infected. That is one of every three people in the world. There is no way it can be contained by isolating a few people in Ungoofaaru or anywhere else.
Authorities please stop spreading the uninformed hysteria and news agencies please stop fanning it by publishing these stories.
