13 DAYS of SPOOKY HALLOWEEN ICD-10 Codes
Day 7: VAMPIRE AT DAWN
The pungent odor of garlic and the use of religious symbols are believed to ward off vampire attacks, but experts disagree on the effectiveness of these methods. One vampire defense that all can agree on is sunlight.
Because they are creatures of the night, sunlight is Kryptonite for a vampire, rendering them blind and creating epileptic reactions in their brain. A vampire’s pale skin is also extremely sensitive to ultraviolet sun rays, and any exposure will cause instant burns and blisters to appear.
Porphyria is a blood disorder that causes photosensitivity and chronic hemolytic anemia. Could this disease be behind the legend of the vampire?
To be safe, if a vampire knocks on your door this Halloween, do not let him inside. Vampires can not enter your home without an invitation!
KEEP CALM & HALLOWEEN ON!
