No oversight on science is a fucking disaster, as is letting scientists do whatever the fuck they want with no checks...

Nah, depends on the field imo.
Cosmologists. Ban.
Chemists. Ban.
Medics. Ban.
Physicists. Big up.
Biologists. Big up.

Yeah fair enough. They still have to justify what they're doing though, public funds or not. Open access should be a decent way to make it more accessible, the public have a right to know what they're paying for...

Hmm, dunno about that.
It kind of leads to things like the modern pharmaceutical industry where countless amounts of quality science are thrown away because they don't fulfill the outset plan.
It's kind of like being a musician. Wouldn't make a good single/ep/album if they had to make everything public as it was in progress.

This.
7 African countries, including Morocco are experiencing cases, and I understand a couple unspecified hemorrhagic cases in north america, one a doctor or the spouse of a doctor that flew to Canada from an effected area.

100% exactly this
Ignorance and 'ethics' are the things standing in the way of cures for diseases, effective power sources, feeding the world and pretty much everything else.

Yeah, I agree. This is why I never worry about outbreaks like these. They are possible, but likely?
A fear of scientific progress is almost innate in humanity. It's why the story about Frankenstein is so influential and why Jurassic Park was a hit. People are afraid of the unknown and science is the unknown for most people. So when they see scientific results (such as goats producing spider webbing proteins in their milk) without understanding any of the steps that were taken from A to B, they freak out.
Apparently to most people, scientists are clever enough to change the progress of technology, but too dumb to understand that letting a genetically engineered firebreating dragon loose in a populated city is a bad idea.
