| | The White Plague - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | While the story of O'Neill and his revenge is told in full, there is also the larger story of how the governments of the world's countries deal with the plague, which escapes into limited areas that are quickly sterilized by "panic fire", which immolates everything and everyone in it. |  | | O'Neill is driven halfway insane by the death of his family, and his mind fragments into several personalities that carry out his plan for him. |  | | After releasing the plague, he goes to Ireland to hide, planning to offer his services as a molecular biologist in the hopes of sabotaging whatever work is done there on finding a cure. |

| | WHITE PLAGUE |
 | | Two forms of white plague, plague type I and plague type II have been described. |  | | White plague was first described from the Florida Keys in 1977 affecting massive and plating corals (primarily Siderastrea, Mycetophyllia and Colpophyllia); in the 1980s it was also reported among star coral (Montastraea faveolata). |  | | White plague has not been described from the Indo-Pacific, however disease signs are similar to white-band disease observed on massive corals. |

| | White Plague |
 | | The fact was, and is, that the white plague represented an extraordinary advance on anything these stone age people knew and they recognised its power. |  | | The colour of the skin is not what raised the British to their high status, it is their impregnation with the alien Jewish identity in a subjugate form whereby they could be driven by the Jew's mastery of the law which governs society and the primary proceeds of the law, which are financial. |  | | It is one born out of the same abject defeat that the English are subject to today as the Indians were when the Jews first invaded America and began to reek the effects of their plague upon the new found promised land. |

 | | This nearly happens in a scene between Krug and Galen: The baron has been infected by the plague and disguises himself as a poor man to try to get the doctor to take him on as a patient. |  | | Galen quickly sees through his disguise and tells Krug that he'll treat him only after the baron stops manufacturing weapons of war in his factories. |  | | Capek has not rendered the issues within the play in black and white; The White Plague wrestles with moral and ethical choices for all of its main characters, and it's a pity that the production works against such ambiguities. |

 | | Confused and back at the drawing board once again, the CDC is attempting to pinpoint other suspect areas for their examination in the continuing hunt for the Plague's evil roots. |  | | The Plague's early signs and symptoms are easily identified; initially, the guitarist loses his ability to hear above 438 cycles per second, therefore aurally tricking himself into tuning his instrument a half step lower than concert pitch. |  | | Even after countless scientific field studies, which were exclusively conducted in the western quadrant/delta region of Mississippi [where the vast and almost total majority of our country's true legendary "Bluesmen" were conceived and raised], the CDC has found NO EVIDENCE whatsoever linking the Plague's sinister origins as being native to this rich musical geographical vicinity. |

 | | Confusion between white plague and white band disease is problematic because the visible signs of the diseases are virtually identical in that there is a sharp, distinct line between apparently healthy coral tissue and freshly exposed coral skeleton with no obvious microbial material present. |  | | At times, some types of both white band and white plague may have a zone of bleached coral tissue at the disease boundary, but in both cases this is usually transient and variable. |  | | Recent results of culture-independent studies of bacterial 16S rRNA gene diversity of white plague disease are discussed. |
