Ah, just a gues but sounds like the 'flesh' of the people with this disease might 'taste' like dead meat then to the maggots.

Not precisely... maggots that are used for therapeutic debridement of wounds (that is, removing dead infected flesh to promote healing) is of a specific species of fly that only eats dead tissue. This poor guy was eaten by god knows what species of maggot - they ate not only dead tissue but also living tissue.

Remind me to always promptly band-aid my cuts when I'm in Hong Kong....

Maggots are actually used in medical procedures now to treat wounds ^^

However, externally, not internally
