Ebola in Central Texas

[Centaur]

My very amateur understanding of evolutionary microbiology is that viruses don't all have an equal chance of evolving an airborne strain, that some are closer to it than others the way a chicken is fewer mutations than a snake away from becoming a bird of flight. But I might be wrong about that.

Well, Ah foundt this h'yar mess on tha interwebs.

http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/ebo...-rises-n229341

An' Ah'm a-callin bullshee'yit on it. It sez thet four duzzin folks whut came inta contact wif thet 'riginal Ebolarooskie dead duck in Dallas ('cludin' tha four folks thet wuz a-livin' in thet apartamento wif him) izza gonna complete a three-week quarteranteen period this h'yar Monday mornin' wif no sign thet enny o' them dun contracted thet virus.

Ah sez, THAT'S BULLSHEE'YIT!

If'n nun o' them folks got it, them how cum them nurses got it? How cum so menny folks o'er in Arf'rica dun got it? How come folks all o'er Amurrica izza cummin' down wif it an' droppin' like flies?

Ah don't trust tha libr'l lamestream media (an' NBC izza prime 'xample rite thar) an' Ah sure as shee'yit don't trust Mr. Obama bin Fukkin'roundh'yar 'r tha CDC r' FEMA.

Ah think all them four duzzin folks is daid frum Ebolarooksie an' they dun bin replaced wif paid actors. Thet's why they wuz a-quarteranteened. So's they culd die real quiet-like an' thar replacemunts culd git set up ta take o'er thar lives.

Don't drink tha Kool-Aid, folks! Ebolarooskie Apockylips izza cummin' in ... three ... two ... one ... Aaaaaaaaarrrrrgh!

Sorry, Ah jus' came in muh shorts a little, not tha Apockylips. But it oughta be along enny minit now.

You're the one who brought up science fiction when you started talking about "airborne" Ebola.

When you make a science fiction argument, expect a science fiction response.

Ya cain't go wrong wif a-blamin' tha victim fer tha mess they gits themselfs in. Thet's why Fox News duz it all tha time, cuz it werks.
