MacBook Pro smells like rotten eggs. Is this dangerous

MacBook Pro 2015 I've been using for hours and is starting to emit a foul smell. What the **** is this?

Maybe a rotten egg? I don't smell anything, here. Shut down the computer. Make an appointment at the Apple Genius Bar for service after the stores re-open. If you need to find an Apple Store - Find a Store - Apple. Also, see How to find your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or Distributor (AAD). You may also get Apple authorized service at a local Best Buy or contact Apple Support for more options.
