Yama Virus

The Yama Virus, also known as Myocardium Digestorium Disease (MDD) or simply Yama, is a viral myocardium virus of humans and other primates and is also the only known virus within the genus Yalhalanieri.

The Yama Virus was first named and recorded by Osvald Jackson in February 2017 and was named from where it was discovered, near Mount Yama in Louzaria.

Symptoms and properties

The virus is transmitted through feces and can be airborne. The virus can kill as early as 30 hours and as late as 50 hours after infecting the host. The Yama Virus infects its host through the blood, where, once in the bloodstream, the virions migrate to the heart where it will stay for the remainder of its life. Digestive enzymes within the virus quickly begin to break down the cell walls of the heart until the heart doesn't have the strength to continue pumping blood around the body.

A person infected with Yama Virus will experience little to no symptoms until the ' point of no return ', which is generally agreed when a person has been infected for more than 18 hours and no less than 22. It is at this point the person shall experience slight heart pains and in almost all cases internal bleeding concentrated within the torso. Heart pains will intensify after this period. Some cases reported bleeding from the nose and mouth after the point of no return. Infected persons may suffer headaches that can very from mild to extreme.

Between 30 and 50 hours the host is entering the final stage where they will die. The host will most likely suffer a heart aneurysm which becomes the precursor for several symptoms. Sudden, intense and persistent chest or back pain, pain that radiates to your back, trouble breathing, low blood pressure, loss of consciousness, shortness of breath, trouble swallowing, paralysis and death. The less common way the host dies is with substantial loss of blood which itself causes most of the aforementioned symptoms.
