To the best of my knowledge a causal relationship between Zika and birth defects has not been proven.
I'm all for scientific rigor but that may be a bit too far, raz…
I was attempting to lower the panic level until the data is in. Certainly, we have a temporal correlation. And, that should indicate a bit of caution. But "Childhood's End"? We're getting way ahead of ourselves.
I must try to be more verbose in my posts. Sorry.
Managing the correct level of "panic" is always a challenge. The Ebola outbreak was dramatically worse than it should have been because people were slow to take it seriously.
In Africa.
In the United States, Ebola reporting was FUD.
