Giant Microbes, Flesh Eating
SKU: 18721
|
Overview
Flesh-eating disease is no dieter's dream -- it's a headline grabbing nightmare most commonly caused by crazed strains of Streptococcus pyogenes, the same bacteria responsible for strep throats.
The disease is one of the fastest-spreading infections known, and can consume an inch of flesh per hour. It is also very rare -- and because initial symptoms are similar to the flu, more often than not diagnosis is tragically delayed.
GIANTmicrobes® are stuffed animals that look like tiny microbes — only a million times actual size! They're humorous, educational, and fun! Each GIANTmicrobes® comes with an image and information about the real microbe it represents. They make great learning tools, as well as amusing gifts for anyone with a sense of humor. Collect them all!
