"Tapanuli Fever"
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
"Tapanuli Fever", supposedly in Victorian times known as the "Black Formosa Corruption", was a "very rare" condition made up by Owen Harper to describe the symptoms of Marianne Till.
Owen told Marianne that the fever was endemic to a few small regions of South America, including Argentina. He compared it to Ebola. (PROSE: Slow Decay)
