And now recognized the presence of the Red Death. He had come like a thief in the night. And one by one the hard comrades fell in the halls of their desire blutbetauten to the ground and died - one each in the distorted situation in which he had fallen in despair.
~ The Mask of Red Death, Edgar Allan Poe
decay is spreading in the megacities Europe. Plague and cholera are raging between the eastern slums within sight of the Eiffel Tower, as well as in the drab apartment blocks of Berlin or the muggy misty side streets near the River Thames. Even the dengue fever have spread of resistant mosquitoes from Asian Tiger climes calls for their victims from Lisbon to Oslo.
Again and again, hundreds of people die painfully invisible to the hostages, who are the so-called civilized countries in the Middle Ages were the first world is overcome. For the Government's action in most cases it is clear the top priority control hot. Masked forces of disease security and military lock the quarter and hope the fact that the disease agent sooner or later stripped of his foundation. If this is so far increases the sweet smoke of burning mass graves in the streets, while caustic Kalknebel go out of helicopters over the houses down. Those responsible for disease control and the health department to know at this point, no scruples. Who Mourns for even the few illegal immigrants, faceless workers and other riffraff below subsistence?
for the upper class, these incidents is nothing more than headlines in their news cast. With some donations to the families they are buying a pure conscience, as if the electronic receipts, letters of indulgence.
but it is a disease, it actually creates even the neurotic technocrats in their sterile rooms in panic-terror move on: the Red Death. entered

Only after the cataclysm of the plan, the disease appears as a terror of the wealthy. Nine out of ten outbreaks take place in the velvet-lined rooms of the privileged, so called cynical voices of the Red Death as a Society's disease. The origin is not taken for the transmission of the pathogen no further criterion once in circulation it affects arm, like Reich.
pathologists guessing what circumstances, the emergence of the Red Death, actually in this protected against most diseases that favor the population.
The theory that there is a man-made plague, which are used by terrorist elements in the unions targeted wins, just as proponents of how the religious propaganda that it this is a punishment from God (or gods) , which is directed against the decadence and death soon follow the Red Dragon of the harlot and the beast are.
The first symptoms can be customized with the following words describe very well:
long been raging in the land of the Red Death, and never was a devastating plague, a disease never been atrocious. Blood was the beginning, the end of blood - all the red and the horror of blood. With stinging pain and dizziness, it began, then blood oozed from every pore, and that was the beginning of the resolution. The scarlet red spots all over the body of the unfortunate victims - and particularly in the face - were the Red Death spell seal that drawn by the help and participation of their fellow men excluded, and everything from the first attack to death was over, the work of a half hour.
~ The Mask of Red Death, Edgar Allan Poe
The real horror, however, is not described in these prophetic lines. The Red Death that is not satisfied with the simple that kill his victims. First, the virus slowly perforate the skin and veins where he attacks like the brain.
Before half an hour has passed, the infected person suffers a severe injury to the brain, which puts out his personality completely. The longest the primitive instincts of the reptilian brain, the ailing body kept going.
with ponderous movements, usually even creeping slide it doomed to die their bodies forward in search of new host bodies for the disease. This activity, however, can not long be maintained, because the decomposition of the woven falls steadily. A feverish heat flows from warm to them as the copper aroma blood. The body values go crazy in this startling final stage, the heart races, the brain waves recorded hectic rashes, which subject the infected temporarily epileptic convulsions and contract the muscles of the intestines as in electric shock. In the final stage, the infected fall into a grotesque Shave, which it to other people or even just moving objects can go off. Coupled with its growing inability to coordinate the move and constantly sweating blood from her body, this is a very disturbing sight.
After a few minutes, the nightmare has an end and breaking the victims of this terrible plague, together final. At this point it is little more than a collection of raw meat, rotten held by tendons at the bare bones.
is transmitted through blood infected with the pathogen, which swells the sick anywhere in the pores. This blood is up to a day after escaping from the body highly infectious. So far, there is still no research institution succeeded in isolating the virus clearly, to explore it can be sent is the microscopic killer in front of his camouflage.
It is only in the first few minutes (Soma + resistance) to combat the disease is possible with the appropriate serum, then the virus the body is so damaged that death is inevitable, if not take supernatural powers to work.
