Recently, there has been a hemorragic fever emidemic in the
Nicaragua/Honduras area...21 dead and 1600 ill according to this mornings
news. CDC and others are trying to to assess cause. They suspect it is
related to the four times normal rainfall this season (totalling out at 17
feet) and the rise in rodent/mosquito populations.
