I thought the first thing when I read the headline, but click through to the statement from the designer. It's actually really awesome - a lot safer and better for patient interactions.

Why? This is an actual awesome thing. They're improving on the product.
Wait—maybe I'm reading the article wrong, but I thought this designer wanted to actually do something useful, so she's designing an actual Ebola protection suit that is better than what is currently available.
For a period of time, while my health was in flux due to the repercussions of ulcerative colitis left too long, I was going to the bathroom so often that I was expelling sodium faster than I could replace it.
I had a sodium deficiency, and I know first hand what happens when you aren't getting nearly enough salt.…
Oh, the whole "eggs raise your cholesterol" nonsense has been debunked for decades. Yes eggs have a lot of cholesterol in them, but your body doesn't absorb cholesterol from the foods you eat. Instead, it is stimulated to make cholesterol from the foods you eat. Primarily certain types of fats.
I have celiac, so I'm thrilled with all the gluten free foods that have been developed, but I have to avoid the super allergic gluten free foods because they pump them full of sugar to replace the dairy and eggs. I want my dairy and eggs, just not the gluten.
It is because of such 'guidelines' that abominations such as margarine (trans fats) and high fructose corn syrup were created. Rather than enjoy the goodies humanity have eaten for centuries in moderation, we want to have our literal cake and eat it too — but without the added weight gain. So in come the science…
Please add the common misconception that salt is poison. Low sodium intake has been associated with an increased risk of stroke, in spite of what almost all doctors are taught, in at least two studies. There is little or no evidence that sodium intake increases the risk for cardiovascular disease. A high salt…
Right? Because Africa was so pro homosexual before today's modern conservative missionaries. The African Anglican Church split with the great Anglican Union over the issue of homosexuality. The Episcopalians now ordain homosexuals and perform homosexual unions but the Africans were having none of it. That's not a…
"They" did. All the people that did those things are dead and I doubt very much that any of us know who their descendants are.
That's something I've never understood. People have done terrible things in the name of all manner of things. Almost every religious group has committed crimes because they felt their religion justified it. But that's not an attack on religion. Secularists have committed terrible acts in the name of their beliefs.…
I'm a fan of the Eisenhower-style Republican: We run the Government, you run your lives.
I think the particular economics of maternity leave are perfect to illustrate the difficulty of implementing some of the demands that are made on employers, and not because it is related to women, so don't go accusing me of misogyny because this is about economics.
Adding "catastrophic climate change" to global thermonuclear war is goal post moving, pure and simple. There's almost no chance of a nuclear exchange right now and if these "scientists" were to report that, nobody would ever pay attention to them again.
Grandstanding Chicken Littles gonna grandstand.
Holy god, that was the most canned, rehearsed-sounding speech I've heard in a long while. The tone and cadence were pure Sally Struthers PSA. I kept expecting her to tell us that for just pennies a day, we could ensure that poor Iowa school children would have more than one pair of shoes.
But at least there's no DNA in eggs, right?
Reminds me of these posters by Australian chemistry teacher James Kennedy. I know they're mostly shared by and to those who already know that not every chemical with a long name is dangerous, but I hope they at least once in a while show up in the facebook-feed of a chemical phobis person who might learn something...…
OH MY GOD WHY DONT THEY WRITE ALL OF THIS ON THE LABEL SO THAT WE KNOW
