Just a point of order for the journalists out there who think they are so smart:
There is no such thing as a “global epidemic”
Epi- from the Greek meaning “at.” Epidemic is a disease outbreak localized to an area.
Pan- from the Greek meaning “all.” Pandemic is an outbreak everywhere.
A “global epidemic” is an oxymoron, and using it makes a talking head look like a moron.
… “LOOK…?”
” Look”? Really?
Like we don’t ALL of know already?
And here I thought “pandemic” had something to do with bread people. Possibly gingerbread people.
Unless it was pasture people. Or a population of chimpanzees.
