I had NOTHING to do with the Toronto SARS outbreak. Really. I have *different* cooties. I do NOT have SARS cooties. Yet.

But you see, by going out of your way to not get SARS, you're probably ensuring that someone else will get the SARS meant for you. I guess that makes you bad.

The average person in the industrialized West does not get SARS 5.6 times as often as the average person in developing countries. If everyone didn't get SARS as often as you don't, we would need 19.3 planets to hold all the wellness. And if the world were a village of 100 people, 98 of them would be illiterate, 5 of them would have not be fans of the smash NBC hit "Friends", and the average person would have 60 million heads and 120 million arms and would live in perpetual agony. It was to prevent just such an occurrence that the Time Police were established.
