Bubonic Plague Returns - BBC News Madagascar Black Death Warning
Madagascar faces a bubonic plague epidemic unless it slows the spread of the disease, experts have warned.

The Red Cross and Pasteur Institute say inmates in the island's dirty, crowded jails are particularly at risk.

The number of cases rises each October as hot humid weather attracts fleas, which transmit the disease from rats and other animals to humans.

Madagascar had 256 plague cases and 60 deaths last year, the world's highest recorded number.

The years passed, mankind became stupider at a frightening rate. Some had high hopes the genetic engineering would correct this trend in evolution, but sadly the greatest minds and resources where focused on conquering hair loss and prolonging erections. ~ Narrator (Idiocracy)

Re: Bubonic Plague Returns - BBC News Madagascar Black Death Warning
I think my only concern is if it is left to spread that it mutates into a form we can not treat with current medication.. that is a scary thought, looking at how quick swine flu spread it wouldn't take long to engulf us all.

To be honest my conspiracy about swine flu was that it was a planned release to see how such a virus would spread and how we could cope with one... that thought is based on the fact the death toll was lower than the usual average in a normal flu season..

Hey, it worked in 1347, just like the Holy Spirit said.
