The acid in your stomach is strong enough to dissolve metal. Powerful stuff!

More cases of a mysterious flu-like illness labeled “Disease X” were reported in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the World Health Organization has dispatched a rapid response team to help investigate.

Since Oct. 24, 406 cases of the unidentified illness — marked by fever, headache, cough, runny nose, and body aches — have been reported through Dec. 5 in the Panzi health zone in Congo’s southwest, the WHO said Sunday in a statement. That’s up from 376 cases announced last week. While more than half of the cases involve children under 5, a 50-year-old male traveler hospitalized in Lucca, Italy, is suspected to have recovered from the disease, Il Tempo reported.
