Cambodian Troops Quarantine Quan'sul
Military Forces quarantine Quan'sul There has been a small outbreak of zombism in a small town near the border of Laos in North-Eastern Cambodia. The culprit was discovered to be mosquitoes native to that region carrying a new strain of Malaria which thus far has a 100 percent mortality rate and kills victims in fewer than 2 days.
After death, this parasite is able to restart the heart of its victim for up to two hours after the initial demise of the person where the individual behaves in extremely violent ways from what is believed to be a combination of brain damage and a chemical released into blood during resurrection.
Cambodian officials say that the outbreak has been contained and the public has no need to worry.
General Ary Serey had this to say, "We have obtained samples of this new parasite and plan to learn how it starts the heart and other major organs of the deceased. We intend to use this to increase the quality of life for all."
US Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice opposed the plan saying that the Cambodian government holds a great biological weapon and should destroy it immediately. Cambodian officials have yet to comment.
A United Nations team will be dispatched to Cambodia to confirm the safety of biological research in Cambodia.
It's gotta be a joke story.
If BBC has a link, that would be immensely helpful.
This is the first I've heard of such a thing, though it sounds dubious.
But hey, you never know.
Desperately seeking corroboration...

It was on FR a couple days ago and was traced, I believe, to a joke on the April Fool's day.
Yup, and monkeys make a habit of FLYING OUTTA MY BUTT.
What game is that pic from? Doom 3?
Resident Evil
If you do a search on the real BBC site the story won't be found.

It may be a fake. My son told me about it. Maybe I'll go into the basement for a few days.
Now are these the brain eating zombies, or the NON brain eating zombies?
I've seen that before - that's not pink eye!
Just don't sleep with the bean pod body pillows....
