Now It Is Correct: The Bell Curve Of Zombie Science

The statistical distribution of scientific accuracy! On the left, we have the "viruses create zombies" crowd who clearly binged too many B-movies instead of biology textbooks. In the middle, our frustrated scientist is having an aneurysm trying to explain that no, viruses don't create zombies—that's just Hollywood nonsense. Meanwhile, on the right, the high-IQ crowd correctly identifies that parasites (including certain fungi, protozoa, and yes, some viruses) can indeed manipulate host behavior. Nature's mind control exists—just look at Ophiocordyceps unilateralis turning ants into fungal puppets or Toxoplasma gondii making rodents attracted to cat urine. The bell curve of knowledge strikes again: the ignorant and the expert sometimes reach similar conclusions, but only one understands why they're right!
