The interval between the onset of symptoms and death has been 48 hours in the majority of cases, and “that’s what’s really worrying,” Serge Ngalebato, medical director of Bikoro Hospital, a regional monitoring center, told The Associated Press.
The latest disease outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo began on Jan. 21, and 419 cases have been recorded including 53 deaths.
According to the WHO’s Africa office, the first outbreak in the town of Boloko began after three children ate a bat and died within 48 hours following hemorrhagic fever symptoms.
Fuck yes! A deadly pandemic without long drawn out suffering? Sign me up!
Yeah those 48 hours don’t look too fun either though.
Feel awful for those affected.
Sadly, that makes this unlikely to go pandemic. If it kills too fast it can’t spread.
We’ll have to live a little while longer… 😒
Until some poor sap examining the body gets a tear in his PPE and he gets the mutated version that turns him into a zombie
This guy has definitely played ‘Pandemic’ the flash game
Specifically the flash version?
I guess not lol, but I did think it started as a flash game.
I believe you’re correct, though I haven’t played any version of it so I’m not an authority.
This was just meant to be a gentle ribbing, no worries about your actual level of accuracy.
God damn it
I’d rather have a few months of major discomfort than the two days of hard-core body horror that they just went through.
