The thing which Dr F personifies is not Science. It is Policy. By definition - he's a lifelong bureaucrat. He literally is Policy Man. His superpower is an ability to infect, confuse, hurt whole populations from a distance. You can't social distance away from his disease - a viral centralization of control.
