gollark: There was something in the xkcd what if book about a fungus thing with a toxin that stops some RNA polymerases working, which has presumably similar effects. Apparently you die within a few days.
gollark: Hmm, that is many lizards. I've noticed while on holidays that they seem to be quite prevalent in hotter countries in Europe and stuff, but basically not at all here.
gollark: It's very contagious and has a 2% death rate. More if healthcare is overloaded.
gollark: That too.
gollark: I'm not actually sure if it's liquid there or not. In any case, it's not somewhere I would want to go.
