Do you feel suffocated by the constant health warnings?

In the past week alone we have been warned against ham and scented candles and now the type of pint glass we use has hit the headlines.

Do you feel scared by the warning or just downright irritated?

i am so sick of being told what to do. everything is dangerous- we cant do anything without being told off. did you know breathing is dangerous? you could swallow some petrol fumes or a wasp, perhaps even a carrier bag on a windy day and it might stick on your head and suffocate you and then you'll probably fall down the concrete stairs and end up under a car anyway.
