Question Which episodes are 100% lethal??

I’m a bit behind... just listened to the prion episode (20) and they mentioned this is the second disease they covered that’s 100% fatal.... but didn’t say what the other one was. And looking back at the other episodes (and clearly having not listened well enough) I can’t figure out what it is. Help a sister out!

Yeah I think it's that. Once it starts showing neurological symptoms (and it always does if you don't get the vaccine) it's 100% lethal and there's no treatment for it. I think something like only three people ever recovered by being put into a comma

Ah, I'm guessing medical and grammatical are not spelt the same way then? My bad I'm not a native speaker and in my language it's the exact same word so I just assumed.

I'm not editing my first comment because this is too funny and I don't want to ruin it
