Zombie Apocalypse: Flesh Eating Bacteria, Previously Unknown or Forgotten Diseases Proliferate Worldwide


By Jim Donahue
"Remember these names. Aimee Copeland, Tad Hawley, Bobby Vaughn, Lana Kuykendall, and now Keith Korth. They are at the forefront of what might be a Worldwide epidemic. All have contracted NF, or necrotizing fasciitis, a flesh eating bacteria. Keith Korth, a 44 year old man from Brenham, Texas, is the latest victim of this debilitating and deadly disease.
The main culprit is a very well known bacterium, streptococcus pyogenes, which causes something you may have heard of, strep throat. Strep Throat, if left untreated, becomes Scarlet fever, which in turn causes a variety of other health problems, one of which is valvular heart disease, or more specifically, Mitral Valve Prolapse."
