    But the very first step to not being a fool is in considering the possibility one might be one. part of being fool is being unwilling to seriously consider wher one might be wrong.

      In this case, the responses are foolishly dismissing the very necessary task of monitoring new diseases, dismissing the serious work of those with medical training that keep up with biological threats to our lives.

      They also represent deep paranoia on the topic, another characteristic of fools, believing wild stories not based in fact while at the same time ignoring the information available from those with deep knowledge of the subject matter.
      I'd rather be a fool than a Pharisee. You, sir, are both.
