A lot of helmets sat on a post and were shot to hell. My dad tells a story how when he was younger his uncle shot one whith his hunting rifle to prove to him that they were not bul let proof. Side note at the time he shot it they were living in the city .

The flesh-eating bacterium called Hemolytic Streptococcus is a rapidly spreading infection. Intense local heat, redness, swelling, fever, and weakness characterize this rapidly developing infection. The infection can start with a small abrasion or injury. This condition requires immediate medical treatment. It can result in amputation and/or death. Treatment consists of surgical removal of the infected tissue and IV antibiotics and supportive care as needed for any failing body functions.

First of all this is not my thread - Im not the OP and Ive written nothing about poison in any way, shape or form.
Secondly, Im not disputing, that a person can get sick from something. That is not the point AT ALL; Im merely telling you, that you got the definition of 'verdigris' wrong.
You are, of course, referring to Group A Streptococcus, more commonly known as S. pyrogenes. Whilst it is true that it does indeed cause necrotizing fasciitis, it far more commonly causes far less severe conditions. The infections you are referring to are caused by a specific sub-type, Group A β-hemolytic streptococcus. It is responsible for around 500,000 global deaths per year, but only a small proportion of these are due to your 'flesh-eating' infection type.
