Life imitates art imitating life...I think. Anyway it DOES remind me of the Futurama episode; Parasites Lost.

African eye worms suck..They’re as bad and that intestinal gigas worm which burrows itself in the intestine and can get to 15 inches in length. Doctors are able to eliminate the worm after by placing patients on their stomachs while propping open their mouths. A piece of meat is placed at the mouth opening. When the worm starts to exit the mouth the physician will grab it and pull it out.

Sounds like a scene out of the Alien move “Prometheus”.

I don't know which you are thinking of, but The Mars Volta -Eriatarka dwells on it.

Their album De-Loused in the Comatorium(which includes the aforementioned song) is one of the best prog-hard rock albums in the last twenty years.

Loa Loa, oh no, said we gotta go
Eye-yi-yi-yi, I
Said Loa loa, oh baby, said we gotta go

A fine little girl, she waitin’ for me
Catch a ship across the sea
Sail that ship out to Gabon
Me never think how I’ll make it home

Loa Loa, such-a-bad worm, said we gotta go, oh no
Said Loa Loa, oh baby, said-a we gotta go

Exactly. Africa is one giant Petri dish for every filthy disease on the planet. You’d be better off submerging your head in the toilet for a week then go to Africa.

I know. I was hoping someone would see the connection.

BTW - I get that Earwig in the Brain feeling every time I hear the new Socialist Star of the Democrat Party speak.

AHHHHH! I am silently screaming mouth agape after reading that. There are so many things I wish I didn’t know and that is one of them. Looking on the bright side however at least they can remove the parasite that way. uuuuuuugggghhhhh....

I know a couple who watched that earwig program and ten years later were still freaked. It’s probably on youtube. Much worse than the War of the Worlds.
