WHITECOLLAR REDNECK
Based on my morning's viewing of Bloomberg News and CNBC, I think I've figured out exactly how the Centers for Disease Control ranks infectious disease problems. Here's the order, from least severe to most severe:
incident
episode
outbreak
epidemic
pandemic
shitastrophe
There may be some subtle variations, but I think that's the standard scale.
