"Don’t you believe in Science?” she asked. She was a devoted member of the Party of Science -- the party that doesn’t recognize that men and women are different.

“No,” I said. “I am a scientist. I practice science, I don’t believe in it.” For more than half a century I have been a professional physicist. Professional -- that means someone pays me to practice my craft.

Epidemic

Kudos to this actual Scientist for using the correct term instead of the one determined to instill the most Fear in people, i.e. "Pandemic". I suspect The Powers That Be intentionally changed the label of this bug because most people have lived through lots of Epidemics and understand that this is simply normal and nothing to alter your way of life about. They needed something new to maximize Fear and dissuade people from using their common sense and experience to make rational decisions.
