This article is okay, but it is a shining example of the recent, disappointing editorial shift at PM. It's always been aimed at a popular audience (haha), but recently, there is a focus on articles with a strong narrative and lots of relatable human moments (He likes jazz!), with little or no actual information.

I mean, the risk of different animal strains mixing in the wild is presented as the Hokey-Pokey, you put the bird flu in, you put the swine flu in, you shake it all about, etc.

There's also stupid misinformation presented about dangerous things; two I remember are a warning not to use an uninsulated tool to cut a live wire (especially for their audience, just don't do it!) and a warning to back off of ABS brakes if you need to steer.
