Infectious Disease - Madagascar (pneumonic plague - bacterial)
" Madagascar's plague outbreak is spreading at an alarming rate Health officials suspect its no coincidence that the outbreak
which has infected more than 1,100 people and killed 124 since August
coincides with the time of year when families customarily exhume the remains of dead relatives,
wrap them in a sheet, and dance with them through the streets in a sacred ritual, AFP reports."
As another FReeper asks :" Dead count up to 124 now.
Dancing with rotted corpses? What could go wrong? Anyone?"

So gramps and nocturnal lemurs making strange noises in the night with huge luminous eyes might be one and the same. Dead and undead all same same...dance with 'em what brung yah into being.
