Swine Flu: Destroying the Internet?

Now this is ridiculous...

From The Consumerist (excerpt of a GAO Report):

Concerns exist that a more severe pandemic outbreak than 2009's could cause large numbers of people staying home to increase their Internet use and overwhelm Internet providers' network capacities. Increased demand during a severe pandemic could exceed the capacities of Internet providers' access networks for residential users and interfere with teleworkers in the securities market and other sectors.

How much taxpayer money did it take to create this 77 page report? There is no way that this should be a concern of our government.
