Nostradamus C6 Q98: Religious people heighten fears over emerging diseases.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

A city in Northern Germany finds that the DNA of its citizens is being altered by a disease.

The anagram for epistatic found in the second line fits to this scenario since the term applies to the suppression of one gene by another.

The verse also contains anagrams for gluconates and desugaring both of which are applicable to the molecular nature of genes.

There are also anagrammatic terms suggesting this gene affects resistance to disease.

The genetic explanation found in the anagrams also can also be extended to the text where the two rivers flowing with blood are the arteries and veins.
