Did anyone see the episode of House where he was able to convince an airplane full of passengers that they were all sick with meningitis.

Same theory at play here.

Holy shit! Now we have to worry about this:

Forest Service tries to halt spread of bat fungus

May 01, 2009 @ 10:00 AM

The Associated Press

Herald-Dispatch.com

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — The U.S. Forest Service is preparing to close thousands of caves and former mines across the eastern United States in an effort to control a bat-killing fungus.

Biologist Becky Ewing said the emergency order was issued last week for caves from New England to West Virginia. A second order for southeastern states will be issued soon.

Ewing said the order closes the caves for a year as wildlife biologists try to get a handle on a fungus that has been linked to the deaths of some 500,000 bats.

White-nose syndrome gets its name from a white powdery substance on the bat’s face and wings.
Ewing said the decision to close the caves came after the fungus was reported near large populations of endangered bats.

Mouse invasion In Australia

Australia ordered an investigation into a nursing home where elderly and bed-ridden residents were gnawed by a swarming plague of mice.

An 89-year-old war veteran was found bleeding from bites to his ears, neck, head and hands after being attacked by the mice as he lay in bed at the facility in the northeastern state of Queensland.

The old man was so distressed that doctors had to sedate him with morphine, said Ray Hopper, the local member of parliament.

"The top of his ears were severely chewed and he had bites to his head and neck," Hopper told the Australian Associated Press.

"His hands were covered in blood because he was trying to get the mice off him. We are talking about a health facility overrun by vermin. It's atrocious," he added.

Ageing Minister Justine Elliot said she understood there had been a second attack, and had asked accreditation authorities to investigate the staff response to the rodent plague.

"My immediate concern remains for the health, safety and well-being of residents living in the home," Elliot said in a statement.

"These reports are extremely disturbing and traumatic for residents and their families."

To hell with the T-shirts, I want a WVOW flu mask.
I assume they have a hole for the cigarette or some
arrangement to accommodate a spit cup.
