Dealing 1 With a Contagious 2 Disease 


Isabelle: You can’t walk through that door with all of your clothes on! 


Linus: What?! I’ve just come off of a 12-hour flight. I’m tired and I want to get into my own house and into my own bed. 


Isabelle: I know, but you’ve just returned from McQuillanland and I’ve just read that anyone who has been there may be a carrier of a communicable disease called Niebola. It can be transmitted through casual contact, so even if you don’t have it, you could spread it. 


Linus: So what am I supposed to do? Stand out here for the rest of my life? 


Isabelle: Of course not. Take off your clothes. 


Linus: You want me to take off my clothes in front of the house? Are you crazy?! 


Isabelle: No, the best way to prevent the spread of this infectious disease is to burn clothing that has been in contact with it, and to bathe you thoroughly 3


Linus: I’m not stripping down to my underwear out here. 


Isabelle: But aren’t you worried about transmitting Niebola to me and everyone you know? No one is immune. You could start an epidemic 4


Linus: All right, but I’m going around to the back door where no one can see me, okay? 


Isabelle: Great! I’ll get your bath ready. I just have to heat the mayonnaise. 


Linus: What?! You want me to take a bath in mayonnaise? 


Isabelle: That’s the only way to kill Niebola.
