It was first identified in mink, Aleutian Mink Disease, and in the 1920’s mutated into felines, Feline Distemper or Panleukopenia, and then in 78’ into dogs. I predicted after a few years of researching it that the next mutation would be into humans. The virus destroys the body's ability to produce WBC’s and kills the fast growing cells, hence the bloody diarrhea. Treating the disease is like “whack a mole” with medicine as the myriad of symptoms are challenging.
