Scurnish Flu is a particularly deadly strain of the flu, which derives its name from Scurn, the place of origin. Its symptoms include high fever, rash, diarrhea, swollen glands, congestion, excessive sweating, vomiting, and sometimes bleeding from the nose, ears, or anus. Health officials estimated a mortality rate between 22 and 30 percent for those who contract the virus. It is prevented with a vaccine called Drehydinol.
The disease is mostly spread through contact with bodily fluids, and is known to be carried by the bronze fly.
