Being into entomology is so fucked up because what do you mean he’s blue because he’s going to die!?!? He’s so cool he should be allowed to live

what is iridovirus?
Iridovirus is a family of viruses that affects numerous species of arthropods
The one that affects isopods is known as Invertebrate Iridescent Virus 31, or isopod iridovirus.
An isopod symptomatic of iridovirus will appear very shiny and iridescent blue. It is fatal. I don’t know much about it other than that, I’m not really sure how it spreads or anything.
From the Wikipedia page of iridovirus: an infected Armadillidium vulgare, next to a number of healthy individuals. It’s really easy to see the blue color next to the healthy ones.
why are you blue ⁉🤨
gave leon iridovirus <3 post-plaga, bug brained and all.
good ending: the jump from plaga to leon leads to the cure for iridoviruses at the cost of his mental health (his coworkers keep calling him a "smurf" and "those alien guys from that avatar movie" and rarely a gay vampire) (he's completely fine otherwise and immune to the deadly parts of the infection)
it only jumped the species barrier because leon got that bug in him.

Humanity seeing angels as these beatific, opalescent, pacifistic beings of pure light and joy -- only to discover that those are just the iridovirus infected specimens who are too sick to keep themselves afloat in Heaven.

If you’re going to die of a lethal disease, at least die
✨GLAMOROUSLY✨
Today I have learned that iridovirus is a thing, and
1: The externally apparent symptom of turning Bright Blue is wild
2: My interests in medicine, creature design, and speculative biology mean I absolutely need to work this into something somewhere at some point
Feel like this would be of interest to you re. isopods (on reddit, tumblr won't let me post the link): /r/whatsthisbug/comments/ukq62h/north_carolina_no_id_needed_just_sharing_this/
Iridovirus is unfortunately so beautiful ... I hope I never see it in person but if I do I won't be able to resist taking photos.
