News update: The suspected case

News update: The suspected case of Ebola in Canada is not Ebola after all.
Only Lassa Fever.
Not as virulent, but almost as deadly and exotic.

Again we're lucky it's not airborne.

What catastrophe would it take before we can all understand that there is only one world after all? --and we are all stuck on it. Just because we live in America doesn't mean things in Aftica should be alien to our concern.

This time it's Lassa, what would it be next time?
Bon voyage, mes petits virus.
