The Bordal Contagion was a plague-like disease which caused its victims to choke on fluid building up in their lungs. An outbreak of the disease occurred on the planet Bordal in 214 BBY, prompting the Galactic Republic to develop an antidote on the planet Tauber and then begin shipping it to the planet Kabal, which was located near Bordal. The shipments however never reached their destination, as the transports carrying them were attacked and stripped for parts by the Fujari pirates, who left the six million antidotes being carried to spoil. The Republic took no action against the Fujari, and eventually the Rseikharhl species native to the planet Rseik near Bordal began manufacturing the antidote themselves for the Bordali, however by this time millions were already dead.
