in book, below the part you highlighted:

"Episodes of Laughing Mania are most evident in Central and East Africa and typically occur to PUPILS IN MISSIONARY SCHOOLS"

This is very interesting. I recently watched a documentary that was done in New Guinea on Kuru. http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/09/06/482952588/when-people-ate-people-a-strange-disease-emerged

No one knows who sponsored the research, but they were working on cures for it. Makes me wonder about the out-break of mad cow's disease and how this might apply to what is going on in Africa.

Here is the YT link for that documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw_tClcS6To

You can catch Kuru by eating foods that have been tainted by infected tissue.

Can you get these diseases from eating humans possibly?

AngelDetective ago

It is from cannibalism. From what I have read, which isn't much, it is from eating the human brain that has been infected.

ALDO_NOVA ago

yes that is Kuru disease - a side effect of cannibalism. some say it's why Hillary is acting weird this past year

Answering my own question, yes. I found this link: What is Kuru?

WHOA WHOA WHOA I think I just found a piece of the puzzle on this website. Here we all thought that Hillary Clinton had dementia but check these symptoms out.

Because kuru mainly affected the cerebellum, which is responsible for coordination, the usual first symptoms were an unsteady gait, tremors, and slurred speech. (Kuru is the Fore word for shiver.) Unlike most of the other TSEs, dementia was either minimal or absent. Mood changes were often present. Eventually, individuals became unable to stand or eat.

Here is a video of some of her health problems {Click Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9ww1JbcOtE))

0:04 Shows her with an Unsteady Gate 1:35 Tremors or seizures 2:00 Slurred Speech As well as we have the fact that she loses her balance and falls a lot. Most people who are afflicted with Kuru live between 6-12 months after being diagnosed. If this was the case, well then, it would lend credence to Hillary shutting down anybody talking about her health problems, because if they find out she has Kuru, it is mostly passed on to someone who is a cannibal at least according to the website that I just pulled up.
