Blog Post Number 3: Rabies

                                                                     "Rabies"


    In the summer of 1535, two gray aliens (there are assumed to be two) in their little saucer were abducting cattle for their domestic livestock experiments. One dark night, just before they could take any cattle, a farmer's dog came and scared the cows away. Consequentially, the dog was caught in the abduction beam instead of the cattle, and taken on board the spaceship. The extraterrestrials realized that what they abducted was indeed NOT a cow, but some other dull creature, so they decided to fool around with it. They injected the dog with what is considered to be a minor virus on their planet (many suppose this is beccause they had already found the cure) and dropped it back on Earth as a "harmless joke" to humanity.

     It was NOT as harmless on  planet planet earth as it was on their planet, the dog started going a little crazy as soon as it was dropped on earth. It started infecting other dogs by biting them, all of which started foaming at the mouth and biting humans and other animals. All cases ended in madness, and eventually, death, later in the 16th century, a man named Girolamo Fracastoro discovered it and named it Hydrophobia (or fear of water). Modern science now know this deadly sickness as "The Rabies Virus" as of today it is still infecting millions of people from all around the globe.
