Red Pestilence (World in Crisis)

Red Pestilence is a violent, blood and air borne virus that sends its host to reply with violence to any present healthy being. An initial outbreak started on August of 2058, and within the span of 3 months, killed billions of people. It is eerily similar to a zombie, however scientists deny that they are zombies.
== History ==
=== 5 Months Before The Outbreak ===
Five months before the outbreak, an initial apartment quarantine occurred in the city of Singapore. It was locked up after reports that an old man had attacked a college student with rabid symptoms. At least approximately 14 people were inside the building at the time, and all of them were declared dead.
=== Initial Outbreak ===
On August 1 of 2058, a strain of Red Pestilence struck the Democratic Republic of Congo, however it was dismissed again as a non-concern by the public, as the area has been known for frequent outbreaks of diseases like ebola. However, the virus quickly spread throughout the rainforest, and had reached Burundi and Central African Republic by midnight. In the next 5 days, the death toll hit 1,915 and mass media channel France24 started giving coverage of it. The virus had spread through rural Africa, while Nigeria, South Africa and Tunisia started shutting down their borders. The disease wasn't given international concern until footage of the outbreak were received from the city of Addis Ababa in Ethiopia.Category:World in Crisis
