Contagion

A Contagion is spreading, a virus older then the plague.
It kills much slower then Ebola; nowadays.

Not everyone can catch it but it will kill us all.
There is no cure for this virus, we must quarantine all involved.

The basic Symptoms are:

Insatiable lust and want, narrow vision,Irritability,Hypocrisy,Single Mindedness,
Apathy and Irrational Behavior.

Deadly Symptoms are:

Scapegoating,Recklessness,Disregard of Life,Theft and War.

If you see a person with this disease, do not approach them.
Call the center for disease control to have them quarantined.

This message is brought to you by those united against greed.
