Saturday Night Live is never afraid to jump in and tackle current events with a silly edge, and of course, Ebola news was a gold mine.

The recent episode opened with a parody of Fox’s The Kelly Files, in which Governor Chris Christie (Bobby Moynihan) and nurse Kaci Hickox (Kate McKinnon) are questioned about all of the Ebola quarantine controversy by Megyn Kelly (Cecily Strong).

Turns out Hickox (McKinnon) not only enjoyed a leisurely bike ride with her fiance during the quarantine craze, she also swam in a public pool, worked a kissing booth, and handed out individual M&M’s with her bare hands to kids for Halloween.

Leave it to SNL to turn international panic and media overload into pure comedy.
