The Black Death

Scientists claim to have, at last, discovered the cause of the disease that swept across Europe, killing millions. Known as the “Black Death", researchers have now concluded that it was actually Bubonic Plague (Yersinia pestis).

However, there is still some opposition to these findings from some quarters, who contest that the Black Death was, in fact, Man Flu. The World Health Organisation is currently concerned about a new strain that is breaking out in Asia, dubbed "Fu Man Flu".

"See, this is what happens when people don't believe we're ill", said one bloke, who was a little bit poorly, today.


Households across the UK are stocking up on big bottles of Lucozaid and loads of Caramac bars, just in case.
