Germs and people have always coexisted, but occasionally the balance gets out of whack. Plague is a deadly infectious disease caused by the enterobacteria Yersinia pestis (Pasteurella pestis).

Scientists hold great concern that we might get a deadly monster plague from new bacteria that are formed consistently either by evolution or biotechnological mishaps. Old diseases such as cholera and measles have developed new resistance to antibiotics.

Intensive agriculture and land development is bringing humans closer to animal pathogens. The plague has caused death of every 4th person in Europe 14th century epidemic.

Moreover, old diseases have formed resistance to drugs available because of their constant evolution and remodeling and these strains have also evolved their life cycles becoming rapidly growing and spreading.

And some biologists are of strong opinion that such a germ might come from outer space or a bio weapon accident may cause species extinction.

Damage: Runny noses and rotten bodies

Preventable: yes if you discover new drugs or else forget it.

One day Jessica rode her bike, to school and caught up with her friend Michael, "Hey Mike, did you here about that germ infection thingy?" Jessica asked. "Um no I haven't but I have read something online about some disease!"

They walked inside to there lockers, they were best friends, locker neighbours, and actual neighbours but just across the street from each other.

The first period bell ring, they have second period together, "See you after to class Mike!", "Otay" Michael replied in a silly voice.

It was second period, they say together. "Okay class, good morning, as you all know, or some people may know, there is a germ fest spreading around the world, from China they discovered it."

Mr. Minge, is their science teacher, he was kind of annoying making them do all this work, and BLAH BLAH BLIPPIDY BLA BLA!!

By the time the third bell rang, it was time for lunch, they always eat outside if it's beautiful outside. Today was pizza with vanilla ice cream and apple juice! YUMM.

Jessica asked, "Mike, are you sure we're gonna be okay from this stupid disease thingy"?

Mike replied with a defensive voice, "Of course we will be okay, we will all be okay"! We both had finished out lunches and went to go dump our foods, as an announcement comes on, "SEVEN DAYS......."!

Everyone in the Cafeteria was shocked and scared to hear that, when I looked at Mike he was so Pail and scared.

I've never seen anything like this...... 😲
