we’re back Startalk
talking about diseases yes parasites yes
you know in this segment we occasionally
like to feature little contribution from
a good friend of mine Bill Nye the
Science Guy he recently moved to New
York City and so we anytime we get him
to contribute to Startalk we have to
like chase him down and catch up with
him wherever we happen to find him well
we’ve been talking about parasites and
he has something to say about how
science can help keep us alive from
things that would have surely killed us
in a time gone by okay greetings sir may
I have a hotdog mustard and relish
Thanks if you’re a big living thing like
a human you might think your enemies or
lions and tigers and bears oh my oh but
oh no no it’s tiny things like germs and
parasites they’ve wiped out whole
societies and civilizations with things
like the bubonic plague Ebola and the
flu and who knows what else is out there
in the bush or elsewhere just waiting to
come and get us you need a microscope
and special skills even the sea in the
first place that’s why so many people
around the world have trouble accepting
how dangerous they can be many germs and
parasites enter our bodies through the
water we drink so by understanding the
science of disease we’ve designed
filters that are so fine they block out
the germs and parasites and don’t let
them enter our bodies in the first place
we’ve been able to preserve the lives of
millions of people around the world
raising their quality of life and making
them more productive so that people
everywhere enjoy longer healthier lives
it’s wonderful Oh men
oh it was wonderful Wow good night died
12 hours later the stuff he talked about
was on that hot dog
