Thelusian flu is a rare, but harmless virus.

In mid-2365, the First Officer of the USS Lantree suffered a case of Thelusian flu. Shortly there after the Lantree stopped at Darwin Genetic Research Station, where he transmitted the virus.

Darwin station had developed human children who had aggressive immune systems, capable of attacking disease organisms before they entered a human body. The children's antibodies sought out and attacked human beings infected with the Thelusian flu, a fact not discovered until 2365, when the entire crew of the USS Lantree was killed after exposure to the children.

The First officer transmitted the disease to the rest of the Lantree crew, who began aging at a rapid rate, and later died. The station personnel also contracted the disease, later Doctor Pulaski did, until a cure was discovered using the Transporter to revert a persons genetic pattern to a previous transporter trace or DNA code.
