EBN Breaking News - Virus Outbreak

Scientists at Planet Calypso’s Institute of Xenobiology have released alarming reports of the resurgence of a terrifying and deadly virus, Palmer Rabies. Dr. Mosi-os-Tunya explains that the virus, previously considered to have been eradicated in humans via vaccines, causes those infected to experience an intense desire for bloodlust and violence, and now appears to have crossed over to several of Calypso’s indigenous humanoids, including Mulmun and Mulaak’f.

The seasonal migration of the docile Eomon and Longtooth herds have attracted not only the usual carnivores such as Atrox, but also enraged humanoids potentially infected with a new strain of the Palmer Rabies virus. Colonists are urged to use extreme caution when traveling in close proximity with the migrating herds, and to receive booster inoculation shots for the Palmer Rabies virus at their nearest Colonial Health Care center.

Dr. Mosi-os-Tunya also stressed the importance of the ongoing drive to collect Eomon Blood Samples to assist scientists in containing the outbreak and preventing another Palmer Rabies epidemic among the human population of Calypso.
