Pardon my ignorance, you overly religious schmuck, but aren't diseases unclean? Shouldn't an unclean disease have an appropriate name to signify that it's something to be avoided? Or are you saying that, with a kosher name, this disease is a-ok.
I'm glad Israel is responding appropriately to this potential pandemic.

It's true. It's making me spit fat and my skin is all crispy. On the plus side, I smell delicious!
