iberica-151	Balteiro Fernández, Isabel	Metaphor in Ebola’s popularized scientific discourse	2017-01-02	22	.pdf	application/pdf	8654	427	56	Similarly, Trčková (2015) focuses on Ebola metaphors but by resorting to liberal American newspapers, whereas Ungar (1998) explores the media’s response to Ebola, focusing on whether and how they reassured or alarmed their Western audience. Thus, DRUGS ARE LEADERS (“The other leading therapeutic is the small interfering RNA drug TKM-Ebola”), FIGHTERS (“the drug has some action against Ebola virus in the test tube”; “The drugs are antivirals, though not specifically designed to target Ebola”), RUNNERS (“if neither of the frontrunners succeeds, maybe using company X’s vaccine as the prime and company Y’s as the boost might work”) and WINNERS (“A drug that does nothing might look like a winner”), which are attractively presented to Western readers as cocktails (“The monoclonal antibody cocktail ZMapp gained nearly mythical status last summer”; “The three antibodies in the cocktail […] are generated in genetically modified tobacco plants”).	cache/iberica-151.pdf	txt/iberica-151.txt
