You have Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome How you get it: Exposure to mice or rat droppings, nest, or contaminated dust, especially while cleaning in areas prone to mouse infestation. Incubation period: 5-15 days Early symptoms: Fever, headache, fatigue, general malaise Symptoms at full disease onset: Coughing, shortness of breath, low blood pressure Final outcome of this horrible disease: Lungs slowly fill with liquid as breathing becomes more and more labored. Panicked feelings of suffocation and constriction precede respiratory failure, death. There is nothing you can do now but wait for death to arrive and hope it comes quickly.

"You have HantaVirus..." is rather startling to see first thing in morning {G}.

I was just going to post and say, "well at least it's not Ebola" when I thought I'd take the thing and see what it said for me. Ebola. Damn.

Hanta has freaked me out since I read about it in a science magazine a few years back. It tends to hit the healthy and fit worse than the elderly and infirm.
