Scientists just discovered a virus that makes humans less intelligent. It’s called Chlorovirus, and until now researchers had no idea the virus was capable of infecting humans. Scientists accidentally stumbled on this type of algae when they were studying throat bacteria of healthy people. Find out what the new discovery means, and how likely you are to be infected!
