Case study

Her name is Earl M. and her favorite time of the day is workout time! She loves to work out and weighed around 500 pounds of muscle. The problem with earl is that sometimes she will overdo it on the workout machines and will pass out. It is a usual problem at the YMCA and the YMCA staff are used to it.  One day someone was on a workout machine she wanted to get on so she patiently waited and in the mean time she did some push-ups. The person on the machine was  a man and he ran really slowly and sweat quite a lot. She assumed that he was just slow and he had just started working out she laughed at him inside her head how horrible he was. The man must have been new to the YMCA system and left his sweat all over the treadmill’s belt and the machine’s buttons. When it was Earl’s turn to get on the machine she noticed that the man was still in the room. He was in the corner and looked as if he was dizzy and his eyes were red. She decided to show him how its done so she got on the machine and put it on Tarzan mode. Tarzan mode is when you have to run on your knuckles like Tarzan the man sat and watched an expressionless face. Then she all of a sudden passed out all over the machine and the YMCA people revived her. She went home to her husband and gave him a hug while she was still sweating from the run home. The next day she felt dizzy and she looked in the mirror she got angry and punched the mirror. She just assumed it was a side effect from the steroids she had been taking since she was 2. Earl was infected!!! Red eyes, chronic diarrhea, muscle twitching, headaches. The flu can be transmitted by sweat glands. She goes to the doctor and he tells her what she has and asks her why she has the name Earl and she leaves the doctors office confused about her name and how she got the disease. The flue is called sweaty swine flu. There is no cure for the disease. Earl kept going to the YMCA and ignored her condition and said she was too buff to have a disease. Almost everyone at the YMCA caught the disease and it was Earl’s fault. She eventually died from having too much muscle.
