Company sells pre-infected tissues so you can get sick on your own terms

Would you spend $80 to buy used tissues? Well, it's happening. The tissues come pre-infected with germs. A new startup called Vaev claims the tissues are engineered to give you a cold virus that will allow you to get sick on your own terms, when you want. "We believe using a tissue that carries a human sneeze is safer than needles or pills," the Vaev website says. The tissues have sold out.
