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.

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.
