I think it's more that we should be able to trust some of the best doctors in 2 countries (Canada too) to figure that out before slate does. We want to trust that medical doctors know more than the layman about such things.
But isn't it the point that the doctors have no clue what happened? And struggling for an explaination go with the sonic attack vector? I see this often, people who are pressed for an explaination and have no clue make things up.
