Cardio Melancholia Necrosis

"A massive epidemic of this disease broke out during the first and second depressions. The disease, although, was more severe during the second depressions and more wide spread.

The disease is passed through liquids, sexual transmission, needles, and in some rare cases through the air. The bacteria immediately travels to the heart and starts to eat away at the heart tissue. The symptoms most commonly produced by the disease are sneezing, coughing, vomiting, fever, ataxia, depression, dementia, hypotonia, and ultimately heart failure. The diseases has been known as one of the most painful diseases ever known. There are, however, a select few that are immune to it.

Up to date the disease has no known effective practical cure."

Picture of a homeless man during The Second Depression. He was just begging for death. I would have done him the favor, but all I had was my camera with me.
