[All business today:]

Everyone who came in contact with the animals -

[Someone is NOT saying "dinosaurs".]- should report to the infirmary. I've already let the staff know what to look for

BRB SHOWERING FOREVER

[The Gothling does not like steamy jungles.]

Can mosquitoes transmit the disease? Because you know what they were feeding on until we came along.

I think I'll go get checked on. Thanks again....

[whattheytellyou]

I'd worry about a good deal more than prion diseases from the mosquitoes.

Dengue fever and malaria come to mind.

[scarlet_discord]

Bleah...good point! Nothing like a violent brain fever to cap off the hike from Hell.

[whattheytellyou]

Good to know I'm not the only one whose scientific curiosity wasn't piqued.

[Then again, she's been there before.]

Are you going to be all right?

[sharpememory]

Wait, so we can get dinosaur diseases?

[whattheytellyou]

Probably not. DX was caused by contaminated sheep in the food InGen gave the infant carnivores, and, to my knowledge, scrapie isn't transmissible to humans.

Better safe than sorry, though.

[sharpememory]

I'm afraid that my science major isn't enough to translate that. You're talking about a disease?

[whattheytellyou]

You've heard of mad cow disease, right?

[Still a little loopy due to a combination of a light fever and pain medications.]

I don't have mad cow disease. But I'm in the infirmary anyway.

What happened?

[mrs_persson]

Weeeelll ... that cut I got on my hand, courtesy of the little game-bird sized buggers? Got infected. Garden-variety infected. Still embarrassing. Ought to know better by now.

Also broke a couple of ribs. Turns out being on a bridge when it's falling is bad for your health.

Could have been worse.

Do you need anything?

Re: private

Good.

How's she doing?

Re: private

[whattheytellyou]

When is this place not annoying?

I appreciate you doing what you did for me last week, in spite of everything, by the way.

Hope she's feeling better. And talking to you again soon.

[most_feared]

I'll go get checked out just to be sure.

[whattheytellyou]

Good. Might want them to look you over for Dengue Fever and malaria, as well. Wanda mentioned mosquitoes.

[most_feared]

I'll get looked over for whatever they're alerted to. There was leeches and piles of dung bigger than me that had to qualify as a biohazard and I'm 90% sure a bunch of those plants were poisonous. So I'm going to get looked at for everything from the opening signs of bird flu to pink eye.

[whattheytellyou]

Good man.

[Private]

Listen, I need to talk to you. I've been meaning to since before the port. When you have a minute, let me know.
