The world's eight freaks

There have been some strange epidemics in the world: sleeping encephalitis, sleeping sickness in Kazakhstan, dancing disease, June beetle disease, Mogilons disease, Tanganyika ' s smile, nodding disease, LeRoy convulsions.

There are also widespread diseases that have been forgotten by many at the same time as the deadly Spanish flu outbreak of 1918-1926.

Its name is Sleepy Encephalitis, which killed 1 million people at its worst, and millions more with varying degrees of physical paralysis.

Symptoms include throat pain and epilepsy.

People who end up with infection are unconscious or even die, with a high mortality rate of 40 per cent.

But after its mysterious appearance, it disappeared itself in 1926.

To date, no one has been aware of the cause of the disease, nor has there been any medication to treat it.

In July 1518, a strange dancing disease suddenly appeared in Strasbourg, a town now in France.

At the beginning, a woman named Frau Troffea began to develop a disease, and she danced and did not play in the streets for no reason.

Within a week, 34 additional individuals joined her, which rose sharply to 400 in August of that year.

At the outset, musicians were brought to their dances, but when their feet began to get bloody, people died because their heart could not bear them, they moved to the top of the mountain to pray for the help of God.

In the end, most people recovered from their health.

At that time, St.

Vitus of St.

Vitus' Cathedral considered the disease a curse, but contemporary historians categorized it as collective madness/psychiatry caused by stress.

In 1962, a woman working in a textile factory in the south of the United States suddenly had a rash and had a fever and claimed to have been bitten by a six-month beetle.

Within a few days, dozens of other people with whom she worked had the same symptoms and symptoms.

Many were taken to hospital, even though they had not been bitten by bugs.

The plant was forced to evacuate, but only two insects were found in it, and no dangerous chemicals causing such symptoms were found anywhere in the house.

It was subsequently identified as a group disease caused by stress.

Tanganyika, 1962.

On 30 January 1962, the then emerging country, Tanganyika, now part of Tanzania's mainland, three girls laughed over a joke.

But it doesn't stop in a few minutes, like a normal laugh, but it spreads the whole school, affecting 60 percent of the students.

It's even spreading across the region.

Although there have been reports of these people laughing for a whole year, this is false news.

They suddenly laugh, they laugh, they cry, they faint, they rash.

Several schools were forced to lock downThe door, reportedly infected 1,000 people.

Although it is considered to be one of the cases of the collective heart disease MPI, this disease affects only children and only this example.

In 2013, a high school in Leroy, 50 miles east of Buffalo, New York, suddenly experienced unconscious convulsions.

At the beginning of the anomaly was the cheerleader Katie Krautwurst, who began her uncontrolled convulsions after she woke up from her nap and was also bruised by her own mobile phone during the process.

This was then passed on to her best friends and other distinguished classmates, most of whom were girls.

The school is very small, with 600 students.

When the phenomenon spread, students went to the national television station to describe their symptoms.

At first, it was thought to be chemical poisoning, but later proved to be a conversion barrier.

And a small number of people will unwittingly imitate their peers.

It is also strange that the situation is exacerbated by the use of social media and that those who do not upload their symptoms to YouTube or who appear on television recover faster than others.

In a small town in Kalachi, Kazakhstan, about a quarter of the population suffers from sleeping conditions unrelated to meningitis.

The disease first appeared in 2013 and the patient fell asleep for a few days at a time and woke up feeling sickly sick of vomiting, headaches or memory loss.

More than 20,000 tests of air, water, food and population in the area were conducted by experts and the cause of the disease remains undetermined.

Since the beginning of 2015, 152 cases have been detected.
