Subject: Spider Warnings NOT A JOKE
An article by Dr. Beverly Clark, in the Journal of the United
Medical Association (JUMA), the mystery behind a recent spate of deaths has
been solved. If you haven't already heard about it in the news, here
is what happened.
Three women in Chicago, turned up at hospitals over a 5-day period,
all with the same symptoms. Fever, chills, and vomiting, followed by
muscular collapse, paralysis, and finally, death. There were no outward
signs of trauma. Autopsy results showed toxicity in the blood.
These women did not know each other, and seemed to have nothing in
common.
It was discovered, however, that they had all visited the same
restaurant (Big Chappies, at Blare Airport), within days of their deaths.
The
health department descended on the restaurant, shutting it down. The food,
water, and air conditioning were all inspected and tested, to no avail.
The big break came when a waitress at the restaurant was rushed to
the hospital with similar symptoms. She told doctors that she had been
on vacation, and had only went to the restaurant to pick up her check.
She did not eat or drink while she was there, but had used the restroom.
That is when one toxicologist, remembering an article he had read,
drove out to the restaurant, went into the restroom, and lifted the toilet
seat.
Under the seat, out of normal view, was a small spider. The spider
was captured and brought back to the lab, where it was determined to be
the South American Blush Spider (arachnius gluteus), so named because of
its reddened flesh color. This spider's venom is extremely toxic, but
can take several days to take effect. They live in cold, dark, damp,
climates, and toilet rims provide just the right atmosphere.
Several days later a lawyer from Los Angeles showed up at a hospital
emergency room. Before his death, he told the doctor, that he had
been away on business, had taken a flight from New York, changing planes in
Chicago, before returning home. He did not visit Big Chappies while there.
He
did, as did all of the other victims, have what was determined to be a
puncture wound, on his right buttock.
Investigators discovered that the flight he was on had originated in
South America. The Civilian Aeronautics Board (CAB) ordered an immediate
inspection of the toilets of all flights from South America, and
discovered the Blush spider's nests on 4 different planes!
It is now believed that these spiders can be anywhere in the
country.
So please, before you use a public toilet, lift the seat to check for
spiders.
It can save your life! And please pass this on to everyone you care
