Australia Has A Flesh-Eating Ulcer Spreading

Not a good trend:

Scientists in Australia have voiced concern about an apparent outbreak of Buruli ulcer, a flesh-eating disease that usually occurs in West and central Africa.

The infectious disease has seen a spike in cases in recent years in several parts of Australia but particularly in the state of Victoria.

In a study published Monday in the Medical Journal of Australia, the authors caution that the outbreak of the ulcers, described as an “epidemic” in the study, requires an “urgent scientific response.” They report that Victoria is facing a worsening epidemic “defined by cases rapidly increasing in number, becoming more severe in nature, and occurring in new geographic areas.”

In 2016, there were 182 new cases reported, a spike of 72%. But even this number was dwarfed by a further increase of 51% from November 2016 to the same month a year later. In November 2016, there were 156, which rose to 236 cases.

The environmental reservoir of the disease and how it spreads between humans are unknown. Most cases in Africa are associated with living near marshes and other aquatic environments. But in Australia cases, are often linked to specific modes of transmission such as mosquitoes and possums, according to Andres Garchitorena, researcher at the Institute of Research and Development in France and an expert on Buruli ulcers, who was not involved in the most recent report.

On the bright side, antibiotics work – in 80% of the cases.

Probably a more aggressive strain brought in by migrants, but there may be something more. Maybe it has developed the ability to colonize another reservoir/vector, or it has picked up a gene to allow it to better overcome the resistance of human immune systems. Something is very different.

It is troubling, because this thing lives in possums, and I could see it getting into the Everglades, and spreading out to the rest of Florida. Unfortunately it has been seen in Mexico, so who knows what the future holds, until we get the wall.

On the bright side, these things are leftism eradicators, so I don’t get too worried about them. Once one gets loose, we are but a year or two from Renaissance 2.0, with almost no leftists, welfarites, degenerates, or traitors.

Tell everyone about r/K Theory, because of weird bacterial disease that eat flesh, which we know nothing about
