They quickly began suffering from symptoms from the venomous bites, which can include severe muscle pain, abdominal cramps, increased heart rate and muscle spasms.
Their mother then found them crying and took them to the Chayanta health centre where they were given medicine, but their condition did not improve.
The boys were later taken to a hospital in the town of Llallagua but their condition worsened and they were then transferred to the Children’s Hospital in the Bolivian capital La Paz, according to the Head of Epidemiology of the Health Ministry, Virgilio Pietro.
The brothers were given a serum for their bites and their condition improved after that before they were released from the hospital five days later. With venom 15 times stronger than a rattlesnake’s, black widows are one of the most feared spiders in the world, and the most venomous in north America, according to National Geographic.
Their skin could have easily went necrotic. There as a similar killer spider in Australia that live in toilets and stung a guy on the penis TWICE...in less than a month.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

Stupid germs stopping me from seeing the black widow movie!!!
I know we should have seen it already. Really looking forward to David Harbour as the Red Guardian. 'Family. Good to be back together again."
I wish they would just put it on TV, let me pay my five bucks and show me.
Poor kids, hope they learned a lesson.

You have to REALLY mess with a black widow to get them to bite you. (and they bite, not sting).
After all to them (proportionally) you are a gargantuan monster nealy 900ft high weighing 14 tons or more.
And it just grabbed you...
