Erik Pevernagie
“Schizophrenic pandemic aggression may keep us in the confinement of our physical arrest. Still, if we have no other tools in our shed, we have to grind our teeth, take a deep breath, sharpen our awareness, and use the time to recognize what is essential in life. ("Corporeal prison").”
Erik Pevernagie

“From the moment Ebola enters your bloodstream, the war is already lost, you are almost certainly doomed. You can't fight off Ebola the way you fight off a cold. Ebola does in ten days what it takes AIDS ten years to accomplish.”
Richard Preston, The Hot Zone: the Terrifying True Story of the Origins of the Ebola Virus
