I think that the NIH director made a valid point; it’s not like Ebola is a new disease, it’s been around a long time.

Just like the old NASA sentiment goes (even though the actual phrase came from The RIght Stuff): No bucks, no Buck Rogers.

In the meantime, Viagra was developed, for crying out loud.

A timeline for Ebola outbreaks from 1976: cdc.gov

Yeah, almost 40 years.
