South Sudan hemorrhagic fever
South Sudan hemorrhagic fever is "not Ebola", says Sudan.
But it is hemorrhagic — "hemo-" blood + "-rrhagia" flowing — blood flows from your nose, and maybe flows from your eyes (and, presumably, your internal organs, depending on how bad it gets).

Fell Swoop adds: "If you have hemorrhagic fever, DO NOT SNEEZE, because this will spray viral blood all over. (Try not to be in an airplane when this happens.)"
Goldilocks and the Three Planets
Too much stasis: Death.
Too much motion: Death.
But the *third* planet from the sun was *just right*.
