The Death Cure Theme of Madness

Okay, so in The Death Cure, there are people walking around the streets with a brain-eating disease that's slowly destroying mankind. This brain-eating disease causes them to actually start going insane, after which they become unable to control their own actions and thoughts. Plus, there are government agencies and underground societies trying to "cure" this disease or "maintain" it, but all they're really doing is killing a bunch of innocent kids.

Now, that, friends, is madness.
