Ebowler Hat

Those treating the deadly Ebola look like scary aliens with all of that yellow rubber and horrible masks.

What is clearly needed is the intervention of well dressed professionals to inspire confidence in the unfortunate victims, and who could be more indomitable than the intrepid John Steed of Avengers TV series fame? With his dapper suits, umbrella and of course vital bowler hat, he is the epitome of someone who is undaunted in the face of all adversity.

One of Steed's defining characteristics is his famous bowler, now suitably modified of course to become quite naturally the Ebowler Hat. This hat delivers a constant cloud of protective vapour that swirls around the eyes, nose and mouth of its wearer. (aka bowler hat with anti infection delivery system)

A circular canister of the compressed medicinal compound is stored in the reinforced, up-turned rim of the hat. This can be quickly released and replaced with a dexterous John Steed like flick of the wrist.

With the glamorous Emma Peel at his side, her face protected by a fashionable lacy veil, along with matching elbow length gloves, Ebola stands no chance.
