A far too formal presentation to say "We have a cure"

[triggerhappytraitor]

As many of you may be aware, Lyall and I have been working on analyzing the Stricken disease to find a cure and possible way of vaccination against it. Thanks to the cooperation of many and much time and effort, we have managed to isolate it and can officially report on our findings.

The Stricken disease is a form of bacterial infection, likely transmitted through biologic contamination -- that is to say through the shedding of dead cells, saliva and other bodily fluids. Samples have responded to treatments of two types of antibiotics, penicillin and doxycycline, and should be able to be overcome in the body with administration of a proper course of those drugs.

Work on a vaccine to prevent the infection from being able to gain hold in the body has begun, as has production of a large quantities of the antibiotics in both pill and liquid form.

Anyone who has shown any sign of infection or believes they have been exposed to it should report to Liminal Space where a clinic has been set up to administer the antibiotics. Anyone who has concern over possible allergic reaction or a DNA structure that may be incompatible to standard human medications should plan on spending a bit more time to have a blood sample drawn and tested to insure there will be no harmful reactions.

Thank you.

So it was a physical disease after all, even if a magical song is affecting it. Interesting. Very interesting...

Congratulations on discovering this, by the way. It should be very helpful to the locals in the long-term, given that they fled from a tyrant who infected people deliberately.

... Once we are no longer on a Jaunt, I may ask you what all of those words mean. But if I understand the general form of it--we can fix it? This is curable?

[Drizzt pauses for a moment.]

I have felt a little off. Should I come to the clinic?

How do you know if you've been exposed? I've been feeling a little sick...
