Extra! Extra! Read all about it! This is KrIsTiN40 here, telling everyone *Achoo!* that the WhyPox are back! *Plays scary music*

It all started at Sun Roof. I was enjoying the company of my friends, when all of a sudden, I saw a few "Achoos." At first, I thought it was some people playing jokes, just saying it to scare many Whyvillians. I shrugged it off and after a good time chatting, I left to eat lunch.

When I returned, however... I discovered almost everyone in the room was repeating that awful word!

Stay back I say! BACK BACK BACK!!!

I virtually sprayed disinfectant all over myself, hoping somehow it would shield my face from those horrible red spots, the annoying 'Achoo' that interrupts your chatting, and the general experience of being miserable for usually 5-7 days.

Many bitter Whyvillians whispered to me, but it has so far been proven that chatting does not spread WhyPox.

Run for your life! *Achoo!* Float for your life!!!

Many newbies were in utter confusion. You saw the "I'M NOT SAYING ACHOO!!!" or the occasional "MY BEAUTIFUL FACE!" but I just laughed cheerfully, and explained the whole epidemic to them.

Many asked how the Pox was spread, how to get rid of it, and how long it lasts. The truth is, folks, these questions have gone unanswered for many years. It's an unsolved mystery!

In previous outbreaks, the Pox lasted, like I said, 5-7 days for most people. It has been recorded to last longer, or so people say.

Nobody knows exactly how the Pox is spread, and there's no cure either. Sorry, everyone. But you can try to hide it with masks, sunglasses or even large hats. That's the best we can all do right now.

This is KrIsTiN40 signing off, hoping that all of my fellow Whyvillians stay healthy... somehow.

Author's Note: I'm sorry to report to you, but I, KrIsTiN40 have been infected. NOOO!
