Why is everybody freaking the fuck out about H1N1? Seriously. I mean, I am not running around trying to catch it, but people are seriously up in arms about something that still hasn't killed as many people as regular flu does every year. UNM has stopped testing kids that come in with flu symptoms for H1N1 after every test they ran came back positive.

I will admit that death rate among children is slightly higher with H1N1 than with regular flu, but I still wonder what other complications could be involved in that. I guess I just don't understand the ignorance of people with the *OMG, WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!11!!!* Do they not read or watch the news? Oh yeah, that's right the news is covering up the government conspiracy to implant us all with microchips...





Yeah... MICROCHIPS!!!!

On the other hand -- some people are just not well informed about how vaccines work.

I think this is the question that I will ask next time someone starts ranting about how the government wants to kill them:

"Why? You won't pay taxes when you're dead."
