Symptoms
Compare
Blindness
Severe bleeding in the retina causes blindness. Significantly decreases cure speed.
Brain Death
Complications from Encephalitis triggers massive immune response, leading to complete and irreversible loss of brain function.
Coma
Neuropathic effects in the brain stem cause loss of consciousness and sometimes death. Significantly harder to cure
Coughing
Chance of infection by spreading pathogen into surroundings, especially in high density, urban areas
Diarrhoea
Pathogen active in digestive tract, causing infection through faeces and potentially lethal dehydration. Poor countries v. vulnerable
Dysentery
A complete breakdown in the digestive system causes infected sewage, dehydration, starvation and death
Encephalitis
An immune response mistakes brain cells as invasive, becoming inflamed. Often fatal
Fever
Increase in temperature, contagiousness and severe dehydration. Can be fatal
Immune Suppression
Pathogens attach to lymphocytes, suppressing immune system and allowing significantly greater freedom of mutation. Can be lethal
Insomnia
Inability to sleep makes people irritable and less productive
Nausea
Irritated stomach lining leads to discomfort. Slight chance of infection when kissing
Necrolysis
Maculopapular lesions develop into toxic epidermal necrolysis, which blisters and peels skin. Resulting in sepsis and organ failure.
Pneumonia
Serious fluid build and discharge from the lungs. People in cold climates especially vulnerable
Pulmonary Fibrosis
Scarring of the lungs causes shortness of breath and extreme coughing. Can be fatal when combined with intense exercise.
Pulmonary Oedema
Potentially fatal heart abnormality causes breakdown of respiratory system, releasing pathogen into the air
Rash
The skin becomes blistered and painful, slightly increasing infectivity
Renal Failure
Complications result in an inability of the kidneys to process waste products and leads to a build up of urea in the blood. Fatal without treatment
Retinopathy
Virus degrades retina cells, causing temporary vision loss unless treated. Decreases cure speed
Seizures
Random blackouts and fits reduce the patient's ability to function independently. Can be fatal
Skin Lesions
Breakdown in the epidermis causes large open wounds which significantly increase infectivity
Sneezing
Fluid discharge through sneezing greatly increases infection rates
Subconjunctival Bleed
Blood gathering in the anterior chamber of the eye gives a red appearance to the iris or cornea. Decreases cure speed
Sweating
The loss of fluid through sweating also increases infection rates due to poor hygiene. More dangerous in cold countries
Vomiting
The expulsion of infected material through projectile vomiting increases the risk of infection
