He's possibly right about Ebola
Ebola has been massively over-hyped.
Sure, it has killed some people but really nothing compared to other health risks. If anything, all the hoo-ha about Ebola has muddied the water when it come other diseases.
During the last 18 months in the three W. African countries of Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia there have been 11000-odd deaths from Ebola out of a population for 22million or so. About 1 per 2000 people.
During that same time in those three countries:
* Flu killed about 50,000-60,000
* Malaria killed about 30,000.
* Tuberculosis killed about 50,000
* AIDS 20,000.
* Motor vehicle accidents: 6,000 or so.
So all the media hype about Ebola causing massive problems due to economic disruption due to people dying was just nonsense.
