Very addicting game.

Started to spread Corrupted Bloodright away.
(That woman of the tutorial has a horrible voice ... is she infected?)

Madagascar is the hardest country to infect, the virus has to be water borne and stealthy (no obvious symptoms).

do rats and insects board ships? Madagaska doesn't have an airport or borders. These people just won't die!

Madagascar must be infected by ship, but that's not possible since no ship ever goes there.

In one game I played, I started in madagaska but the virus never got off the island. maybe that's just an issue with relaxed mode

I got it... ALL!

You have to have only the mildest symptom and rats or airborne (I had both for a while...) and be extremely patient... let it spread but not kill anyone...

hen save your points... buy up lethality... SELL anything that you don't want visible....

then whammo... buy heartfailure and vomiting and hemmoraging... all forms of transmission...

Whole world burns!!!!! Ahhhaaaahhhhhahahaahahaaaaaa!!!

Ships do go to Madagascar, they just don't go there very often.

They always close their port before any ship goes there even when my disease has 0 visibiliy.

Patience is its own reward... LOTS of patience!

If you disease STARTS in Madagascar... it will never leave either!

Which is silly... Rat borne will go with Ships, Insects will be blown into new areas by storms... Flooding will help spread waterborne... and Airborne would theoretically cover the planet in 18 hours via winds!

(I think) Airborne refer to ones that can be transmitted by just coughing and sneezing etc. There's a couple of references here regarding influenza http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_virus

Actually a fascinating article, I can lose track of days following internal wikipedia links
