I'm failing to follow these objections to the OP. The thread title is catchy (from the Washington Post) but accurate enough.
The thread title is click-bait. Name the fucking illness. Just come out and say what illness makes people think they're dead. People thinking they're dead is sufficiently catchy, by itself, that there's no reason to resort to the click-bait formula as the Washington Post has. Is it an illness which uses more than seventeen characters to print? If so, a very shitty argument might be made from the perspective of layout design. But it would still be a very shitty argument.
Do we even get to find out what the illness was in the material the_5th_ape quoted? No, we do not. Even the OP is click-bait.
