I think it is. The best way to defeat rumors is to make them so implausible only the conspiracy theorists will believe them.
I am, but I have EMT and CPR training and took a year of pre-med in my ye old college days. When things got bad, I stepped in during a bad scene or two, since I never caught the flu, and was practically here all the time for my friends. One thing led to another, and I ended up being hired temporarily.
