Maybe what we'll find is that you really need a combination of two tests, again, because not one test does everything for everybody.

I guess in hindsight now, looking at the results we've seen with this outbreak? (I'm) not happy with the results.

We feel confident that this is the source of the outbreak,

The rapidity with which this has emerged over the last two to three years is probably unprecedented. When you look at the numbers, this way outstrips other so-called new infectious diseases.

This test wasn't working, especially in this situation,

It would have taken only a second or two for a meteor that's 20 kilometers in diameter to pass through the ocean and impact the rock beneath.

It would have put everyone's mind at ease very quickly and would have helped the investigation,

The most advanced organisms at the time were bacteria, so there isn't a big extinction event you can identify as cut-and-dry as the extinction of the dinosaurs.

It spreads around the Earth as a rock vapor cloud that eventually condenses and forms droplets that solidify into spherules, which rain back down onto the surface.

It was horrifying to watch. The front of the house was totally engulfed by the time I got there.
