From time to time here, and on a couple of forums where the whole Ebola topic has predictably mushroomed in the last few days, a number of Internet aficionados have pulled out their expert creds, and/or subtly (and not-so-) hinted that things aren’t that bad, “because the government sez different.”
A number of repetitive strains of this malfunction keep showing up, so let’s have a look, shall we?
#1) “Ebola is hard to catch.”
Well played. So, I can either believe that, or my lying eyes.
Strike one.
#2) “Ebola is fragile, and can’t last long outside the host.”
“We know how it’s transmitted.”
“We have the resources to contain it.”
Etc.
