Stress disease kills Australia's koalas

I don’t really understand how these Koalas became infected with Chlamydia in the first place… The article compares it to cold sores in humans, which can stay latent and flare up in times of stress, but with cold sores, warts, chicken pox, herpes, mono… can’t you not have a flare up unless you’ve been infected? Then, once you’ve been infected you will always have it, even if it’s not always causing a direct problem at the moment? How did the koalas get STDs?!

Body Worlds plans cadaver show dedicated to sex

I really enjoyed the Body Worlds exhibit when it came to Milwaukee, and I understand that sex is a necessary part of the continuation of life… but not death. I realize the people are dead, their souls have moved on, and it is only their shell that is on display. Still, the idea of being posed having sex with some other random dead person after I’ve left this earth is quite unsettling. I am SO being cremated when I die!
