* Trauma Team has a pretty scary one in terms of the main threat, which almost puts GUILT and Stigma to shame. The Rosalia Virus causes WAY too many people to die. And when Rosalia is in its active state, they bleed to DEATH through anything with a hole, including their EYES. Sandra Lieberman (The Raging Bomber) demonstrates this as the game gives the player a good close-up of her face as she succumbs to the disease before dying in an explosion.
** Rosalia is filoviridae (Ebola-type virus) that is spread by butterflies, or more accurately, the wing scales they shed during their migration period. While giving you a touch of AxCrazy provided it spreads to the brain. It also just happens to leave its trademark black bruises in the shape of a freaking CLAW on the organs of most victims, most evidently on the liver, as the virus spreads across the body.
** It gets worse when Naomi contracts it. Twisted Rosalia is essentially a giant caterpillar in her ''heart''. The implications that it's the result of Rosalia and the remnants of GUILT mixing together only make it more disturbing.
** The most startling thing about Rosalia? It's not some artificial parasite or bioweapon designed for mass-murder. It's just a regular virus whose existence was not by the hands of madmen but by the random evolutions of nature. It manages to be ''even more dangerous'' and complicated to treat than GUILT and Stigma.
