Probably for most of you guys it is not a big worry. Adults who are not extremely young or extremely old appear to mostly get a fairly mild version of the disease. People in higher risk groups, however, are getting it bad enough to require ICU at higher rates than with seasonal flu, so yeah I take it seriously. They're not pushing vaccination for you guys unless you are a caregiver for the elderly or children, or a healthcare worker, so I don't know what your issue is
As for myself, I'm getting the vaccination as soon as I can find a place that has it (or still has it by the time I get there). I have pulmonary sarcoidosis, and while I am thankfully no longer on immunosuppressive drugs, I am at high risk for contracting pneumonia if I get sick. Two years ago I didn't get my flu shot and contracted both type A and B flu during the flu season. I just barely esacaped hospitilazaion each time.
If you find it to by hype, more power to you - don't get vaccinated. Don't, however, write off as hype what may indeed be a significant risk for other groups of people.
