Does anyone have an enhanced list of diseases with rules for v2.2?

The rule book comes with stats for Cholera, Dysentry, Food Poisoning, Hepatitis A, Minor Disease, Plague-Bubonic, Plague-Pneumonic, Pneumonia, Rabies, Typhoid Fever and Typhus, but what of others?

Influenza, for instance, seems an obvious miss...

I tried to postulate (based somewhat on Minor Disease and Pneumonia) what stats Influenza might possess, but thought I'd ask before I re-invented the wheel.

What others might there be that might have spawned rampant throughout the remaining populace?

Thanks in advance!

[EDIT] Oh, and poisons! Obviously there's diseases and radiation, but what of venoms and poisons?

I've got a recollection that somebody did some work expanding the list of diseases but for the life of me I cannot remember the details. I think it was for V2/V2.2 but it was several years ago so I can't really remember much at all sorry.
Anybody else know what I'm trying to remember?

The two that I remember are that Enfield did a zombie disease (https://forum.juhlin.com/showthread.php?t=5637), while therantingsavant had a thread (https://forum.juhlin.com/showthread.php?t=5944) discussing their blog post about disease. Other than that, there's been some discussion around diseases, but nothing I remember with game stats.

I had found therantingsavant's thread and notes and though they don't add diseases they do explain things very well.

I was mainly though looking to expand on the existing disease list but hadn't seen where anyone had done anything more with 'normal' diseases.

Like I said, it seems to be a big miss not to have Influenza listed, among other things, but anyway.
