Dangmar's Fever[1], or Waimalu Fever[2], was a disease found on Waimalu which symptoms include high fever, sweating, and in extreme cases, causing a blueish tint to the skin. Until 3072, the death rate for residents of the world was around 3%, but the worst outbreak in a century ended up with a virus that mutated into more drug-resistant strains.
Because of this, when scientist were on the verge of eradicating the disease, the new strains could top 10% in fatality rates.[1]
In 3025, the fever was reputed to be an unconquered disease, which supposedly killed 50% of visitors to the planet.[2]
