minus-squarethepiguy@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 years agoBroken bones? How is that a symptom?!?
minus-squareAttackBunny@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 years agoI hope it’s just a catch all data kind of thing. Like anything anyone has wrong with them gets lumped in to be filtered later. Idk. I’m guessing here.
minus-squarenoisefree@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 years agoI think it’s probably “bone pain” scrambled in translation, since it’s a dengue fever outbreak.
minus-squareathos77@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 years agoI suspect it’s a translation issue. @noisefree linked in another, less sensational article that says this is dengue fever. And the old name for dengue fever was “break-bone fever”, because of the massive amount of bone and joint pain it caused.
