I do not see the current mandated responses as either hysteria or driven by hysteria anymore than our governmental responses to 9/11 or Pearl Harbor were.
Hoarding toilet paper and people demanding that brown skinned people be kicked off planes after 9/11 were hysteria, but that was more at the individual level.
Granted governments have had a long and eloquent history of occasionally over reaching, I am just not sure that this is the case here. yet.
