Pandemic sweeps the planet
In addition to the uncertainties felt by bankers, investors, and citizens over the current global economic situation, various authorities all over the globe soon found themselves burdened with another concern that too has manifested on a global scale. Seemingly overnight, scientists found themselves trying to make sense of what appears to be a newly resurfaced global pandemic called Paraskevidekatriaphobia
This is the name for those who suffer from a superstition: paraskevidekatriaphobics, ...otherwise known as people with a fear of Friday the 13th itself. :P
It's derived from two Greek words Paraskevi (or Friday) and dekatreis (thirteen), which seems to make perfect sense. Although that's the only thing about the infamous belief that really does.
The better known triskaidekaphobia is actually a fear of the number 13 and not just the day.
Doctors report that while this particular strain of pathogen is extremely virulent, ...it has a short life span, only 24hrs.

The messiah is in the White House. Friday the 13th is no longer a bad day.
