    Once Voyager got back to the Alpha quadrant and their mission logs processed, that Flyswatter and tank top probably became SOP for any future encounters with macroscopic viruses.

    Security Officer: Captain LaForge, there is an outbreak of macroscopic viruses aboard. Orders, sir?

    LaForge: You go to the armory and break out the Flyswatters, and I’ll grab the tank tops.

    Security: Are you sure the tank tops are strictly required to counter this?

    LaForge: It says so right here in the Starfleet manual. And I’ll tell you one other thing: I won’t trust my life to this crop top.

    (It was only years later that Geordi realized Riker had tampered with his copy of the Starfleet SOP manual)

      Yes, that probably would have been more effective.

    Oh, hell yeah. My second favorite episode. Gotta love the phaser rifles. They take two hands!
