• Resumen

  • Fitts features a Facebook page about science, which turned into a phenomenon. "This Week In Science," which recounts fantastic scientific achievements--the discovery of an enzyme that could produce hangover-free beer, for instance, or a study showing that 14 adults had been functionally cured of HIV. The page has never suffered creationists, climate-change deniers, or their ilk. In early August, after a wave of scare stories about the resurgence of the Ebola virus, IFLS linked to a breakdown of how the virus works and an estimation of the slim likelihood of its spread through the US with a curt note: Seriously guys, enough with the fear mongering.
