lmfao this dude is corona
For the record, Ebola is really bad. On a scale of 1-10, it's like a "Holy Shit"
its a disease that makes you bleed out your asshole i do that every time i eat chipotle
All Thrax does is make you overheat really bad.
I mean that's not pleasant by any stretch but there's much more gruesome ways to go.
I love how this movie became a cult classic among science teachers across America.
Need an extra lesson planning day? Pop in a DVD of Osmosis Jones!
Ebola kills too fast to be successful
>tfw this movie came out in the same year as the anthrax scare
We watched it in Health class. Where my teacher thought it was important to clarify that the human body doesn't have cartoon people in it.
I remember almost nothing about this movie except how this dude died. I remember it well because it freaked me out as a child.
What happened to him?
Movie had some kickass posters though.
He falls into a beaker of alcohol and he dissolves. If I remember it right, he starts thrashing around screaming and he's literally coming apart.
>Where my teacher thought it was important to clarify that the human body doesn't have cartoon people in it.
Of course it doesn't.
They'd be real life little people, not cartoons.
Falls into alcohol, the detail is that he's fine while swimming beneath it but the moment he surfaces burns like a candle with his twisting and stretching in ways it hadn't before.

The live action parts in this movie used the shittiest and cringiest slapstick "awkward creepy guy does awkward creepy things" comedy tropes ever. Every scene with Bill Murray was a low point.
>Falls into alcohol, the detail is that he's fine while swimming beneath it but the moment he surfaces burn
what's the logic in that?
Alcohol destroys the lipid membrane of cells, which basically causes the interior elements to fall apart.
He might've been OK because the preasure of the alcohol pressed his components together, but reaching air caused them to dissipate.
Then stop eating chipotle, Cartman.
lol, his mom was a goat
Meh. Cells at Work is better.
>Alcohol destroys the lipid membrane of cells
that explains why i can't solve basic math equations without a calculator.
>he doesn't know
It's not that bad.
It's like an 8. Blood everywhere. Fever. Absolute weakness. It's agony, but it's still survivable. There's so much worse. I'd say 9 is rabies or the brain-eating amoeba where everything goes wrong and there's no hope of cure or survival, just progressive disintegration of vital functions until you're a husk, then you die.
10 would be the severe variety of smallpox, where your skin falls off in sheets and you die while rotting from the outside in, looking like a mass of black boils. Also radiation poisoning where your body is already days dead, but you don't know it because the cells that make up your brain and heart divide much less than your blood or flesh, so you're just left to wait as organ after organ fails, none of them vital, until your blood vessels are so weak that you finally succumb to shock.
>[Muffled Kid Rock playing internally]
I feel like it gets overdramatized with time, but smallpox was not a death sentence. In fact its mortality rate was below 50% even for the severe version.
It was above 25% though, so it did indeed leave piles of bodies in its wake, but moreover not a single survivor would escape unscathed, bearing body-wide scars or blindness forever.
i wonder what the design for stoneman syndrome would look like
Presumably he is effectively incurable, owing to his combat skills to effortlessly defeat white blood cells etc.
I always found it funny that white and red blood cells coexist with the green germ things. there must be a ghetto for germs in every body
hell yeah.
Reading some of the horror stories about massive radiation poisoning like that Ouchi guy and others made me terrified of radiation. How it can’t be seen, smelt, or sensed without equipment but it just can destroy the very basic building blocks of your body is nightmarish, it’s like it’s anti-life in general.
The only infections that can be called "10s" are world altering epidemics.
Spanish Flu
The Black Death/Plague of Justinian
and AIDS
All of them WERE 10s and have gotten weaker as we've adapted.
I think it's called the large intestine.
Back in the day vaccination against smallpox was either having ground up smallpox scabs blown up your nose, or having puss from cowpox sores (either bovine or human) put in you. That's how bad smallpox was. Both of those seemed like good alternatives.
10 wouldn't be cancer?
Microfauna, bro
>it’s like it’s anti-life in general.
There's really no other best way to describe it. People who were caught in the blast of the atom bombs who weren't shielded by anything else were vaporized. Radiation/nuclear energy causes living beings to literally desintegrate.
Nah.... Cancer isn't really an infection,more like a condition that results from genetics,exposure to certain chemicals or hazards.
It's not a foreign bacteria or virus.
That's pretty much our intestine's micro ecosystem. They'll even "defend the hood" whenever harmful bacteria try to set up shop in their territory.
Depends. For the individual? Cancer can be, but isn't necessarily bad.
From the perspective of world altering pandemics? Nope. Cancer is a disease of affluence. 85% of people who die of cancer are older than 50. It's only a significant killer if you have a lot of people living to ripe old age.
>literally disintegrate
many weren't as lucky as pic related
But younger people are still a sizeable portion of cancer patients. Hell, the cancers children get are especially cruel and aggressive.
Our statistics of cancer are relatively recent. It's not unlikely that many historical figures that died young did so because they had cancer.
I remember a show which had a joke about that when they were going into a nuclear area.
"Here's your film strip. If it turns black, you will have just enough time to learn to play piano at your own funeral."
I know. I've lost people to aggressive cancer. I'm just saying that it's not always reaching the levels of radiation poisoning, smallpox, etc... and it's not common enough or impactful enough socially to rank with the bubonic plague or AIDS.
It's nit an instantaneous process.
To elaborate on PURE alcohol actually does NOT kill bacteria, it only dehydrates them. To simplify it, think of bacteria as little globs of fat floating in water. The two ends don't mix, and that's what allow bacteria to function. What an alcohol-water solution does is disrupt that balance. The watery coating of the bacteria freely engages with the water in the solution, allowing the alcohol to pierce it and dissolve the fatty lipid holding the proteins of the cell together.
Drax swimming in the solution was basically his last gasp as his outer form reacted with the water before the alcohol did it's work of tearing him apart.
so foreign bacteria that pick up scraps from the small intestine and live right beside a garbage dump
This. Years back I Had two uncles go,One was 61,the other 53.
The 61 year old died from lung cancer and to be honest the Cancer didn't hurt him as much as the chemo,though I Could be wrong. His passing was sad but peaceful.
The 53 year old,well he was a junkie and he must have shared a needle because he got HIV. He suffered through AIDS for a good 7 years before he died and it was horrific...... His last two years saw him waste away to almost nothing and I'm half sure his body started to decay before his pulse gave out. It was pneumonia that took him for good.
Between to two? I'd take the cancer,it seems less brutal.
This thread is a lot more informative than I was expecting.
He feels kinda like the opposite of corona
>corona has a high infection/spread rate and a 4% fatality rate
>Thrax has a low infection/spread rate and has a 100% fatality rate
Sequel with Memevirus when?
>Memevirus
you mean anthrax?
Have you ever checked out the proposals for the facilities to house vast quantities of nuclear waste? They read like warnings in fantasy novels about ancient evil spirits.
>when you realize you're living in the corrupted and decadent past that's a precursor to a more noble and heroic age
I spat out my fucking drink
100%. Here's one of the purposed structures to act as a barrier, it's a maze of blocks the size of houses dyed black as to absorb sunlight and radiate heat to make traversal unbearable and if that shit don't sound like a 1970s fantasy landscape
I've come to terms with the likelyhood that that past 13,000 years is gonna result in us falling asswards back into the stone age. now I'm just frustrated that there isn't enough effort being made into giving our successors an even bigger head start than we got. We only have until the sun goes supernova to achieve interstellar colonization and if we're gonna get fucked each time we gotta get better at creating apocalypse-proof monuments containing the secrets of the universe we've uncovered thus far, and all the worst systems of government that ultimate proved to be a waste of time
Sadpanda already full of pics of Osmosis Jones raping Corona-chan. Is that why we're getting sudden Osmosis Jones threads?
Oh man that's a good Ebola design
i think it's because the american coronapocalypse is getting worse every day
