Equally gross and fascinating! The collagen-digesting Kappa-toxin is really interesting and freaky. One edit: you forgot an "an" in the second sentence of the Pathology section. Other than that it looked great (nice pictures)! – Hannah Wedig

I agree with Hannah. Definitely an interesting topic, but not for those with weak stomachs. I found your discussion of potential vaccines and treatment to be very thorough and engaging. One way you could improve this page would be to more clearly state your research question. I think right now your research question has to do with some of the challenges in developing a vaccine using alpha toxin. You could consider expanding this. Last, in your final paragraph, you state that the highest mortality is achieved with conservative surgery and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Did you actual mean lowest mortality? Overall, you did a great job here. This was a fun read. Good work! -Jonathan Pang
