Small and silent, the 'female sand fly' can transmit a parasite that 'causes leishmaniasis'...... The bite is so small you might not even know you've been bitten - at first. There are two ways to get sick.

Cutaneous leishmaniasis causes severe skin sores, while visceral leishmaniasis attacks the internal organs. You'll know you have the skin kind within a few weeks or months of being bitten. If you get the kind that attacks your insides, it can be months or even years.

“a punch” apparently means “bite” or bites.

Stone hyraxes are most certainly not rodents... though they sot of resemble marmots.

Their nearest relatives are, oddly enough, the elephant, manatee, and dugong.

This article is about 82 percent unreadable. Maybe this is an attempt at using code words in order to escape punishment.

Heck of a translation.
Good news is that the summer bug season has not yet begun.

The nasty virus is caused by infected sandflies that are attracted to the destruction of war and the slaughter that ISIS exacts...

I agree, but don't wan't folks to get their hopes up unrealistically with this bug. G*d has bigger tricks up His sleeve that 7th century medicine and sanitation can't fix. Let me know when typhus, cholera, typhoid and plague show up there. Apparently the international medical aid types have decided ISIS is one disease too scary for even them to face. And plague just might force the European authorities to start some needed, not so PC, travel restrictions and border checks. Not that it would help us much; Obama prefers rats to people.

"Hundreds of Islamic State fighters in the Syrian city of Raqqa, the capital of the self-proclaimed ISIS caliphate, have been infected by Leishmaniasis which can become fatal if not treated with a simple course of medicine."

MUCH MORE UNDERSTANDABLE!

Dont let them fool you. Those are meth sores. The fighters are being supplied heavily with the stuff.

Seems reasonable to expect their ability to fight will be severely impaired, given the sores as well as the resulting physiological stress.

Classic story about early computer translation.
The phrase ‘out of sight, out of mind” is translated into Chinese.
Then it’s translated back to English and the output is:
“Invisible, insane”....
