Dinner Conversation - March 5

Over grilled ribs, baked potatoes and rolls on a very laid back Saturday evening, we talked about the epidemiology of diseases - specifically, malaria, smallpox and AIDS. We also touched on the Ebola virus, how the speed in which it kills it victims actually hinders its growth and how the inventor of the smallpox vaccine used it on one of his children first.

No, thankfully in more ways than one, not a typical dinner conversation.
