Shapaglutentoenex
Shapaglutentoenex is a rare disease transmitted through the bite of a Holton's Dragonfly.

History
There are only three records of Shapaglutentoenex in the U.S. This disease was first discovered in 1974, when 21-year-old Kristen Von Trey was diagnosed with an unusual diesease. She was the second person ever recorded to get Shapaglutentoenex.

Effects
Shapaglutentoenex causes permanent balding. Within a week of being bitten, hair loss begins. Shapaglutentoenex takes 2-3 months to fully run its course. By the time the bacterial infection has left your body, you are bald. The bacteria found in Holton's Dragonfly saliva only affects people who are gluten intolerant. The bacteria eat away at your hair follicles, cause the roots of your hair to dissolve, thus causing baldness. The acid from the bacteria damages your follicle so badly that no new hair will grow.

Holton's Dragonfly
The Holton's Dragonfly was first discovered in 1894 by pioneer Howard Holton, who set of to find a peaceful life in the South. After setting up a successful life near Flagler, Florida, Howard stumbled across the rare Holton's Dragolfly while he was chopping wood in a nearby clearing. The Shapaglutnetoenex bacteria is found in the spit of the dragonfly, and can only be transmitted int he rare occasion that it would bite you. As of 2013, there are only about 200 Holton's Dragonflies left. They are are on the verge of extinction.

Remedies
As of now, there is no cure for Shapaglutentoenex. This is partly due to the fact that Shapaglutentoenx is very rare, and also the fact that there is no cure for baldness. If you are visiting an area where Holton's Dragonflies are common, keep in mind that they are very sensitive to bug spray, and only come out to hunt mosquitoes at dusk.
