According to David Buehrer, at 11:03 on 15 Mar 99, the word on
the street was...

They are bleeding and they are dying. Every number of turns equal to their
Body rating, they take an additional box of damage, which will eventually
be fatal.

(I am aware that the rules in SR3 about this are somewhat ambiguous, in
that they can be read to mean that the aboveo nly happens if a character's
taken _more_ than 10 boxes of damage.)
