Database

Pathogen uses host lymphocytes to replicate. Increase in infectivity, especially in poor regions and mutation chance

22DNA

Fever

Increase in temperature, contagiousness and severe dehydration, which can be fatal

20DNA

Fomites 1

Pathogen survives outside the body, transmitted via external objects. Increases infectivity - especially in wealthy and urban environments

Fomites 2

Pathogen able to survive on increased variety of surfaces. Increases infectivity - especially in wealthy and urban environments

8DNA

Genetic Hardening 1

Pathogen becomes harder to analyse in the lab. Decreases future research speed

Genetic Hardening 2

The pathogen does not reproduce in lab conditions. Decreases future research speed

22DNA

Genetic ReShuffle 1

Pathogen DNA strands reassembled. More work needed to develop a cure

17DNA

Genetic ReShuffle 2

A new strain of the pathogen now exists, increasing the work needed to develop a cure

21DNA

Genetic ReShuffle 3

Multiple strains of the pathogen now exist, increasing the work needed to develop a cure

25DNA

Haemoptysis

Coughing up blood from inflamed bronchi increases infectivity and is fatal in extreme cases

10DNA

Heat Resistance 1

Pathogen evolves to withstand hot temperatures and climates

11DNA

Heat Resistance 2

Pathogen avoids cellular breakdown in high temperatures. Increased effectiveness in hot climates

22DNA

Hemorrhagic Shock

Severe loss of blood volume causes oxygen deprivation, loss of consciousness and death

23DNA

Hyper sensitivity

Increases likelihood of allergic reactions which can distract the immune system. Rich regions particularly vulnerable

2DNA

Immune Suppression

Pathogens attach to lymphocytes, suppressing immune system and allowing significantly greater freedom of mutation. Can be lethal

Inflammation

Inflammation obstructs bodily processes. Swelling can obstruct breathing and be fatal

3DNA

Insect 1

Insects susceptible to infection. Carrier insects increase infectivity, especially in hot climates and chance of mutation

8DNA

Insect 2

Increases rate of transfer between insects. Increase infectivity, especially in hot climates and chance of mutation

19DNA

Internal Haemorrhaging

Arterial membranes break down, causing rapid internal bleeding and death

12DNA

Livestock 1

Livestock susceptible to infection. Increase infectivity, especially in rural regions and mutation

Livestock 2

Wildlife susceptible to infection. Increase infectivity, especially in rural regions and mutation

12DNA

Nausea

Irritated stomach lining leads to discomfort. Slight chance of infection when kissing

11DNA

Necrosis

Large swathes of infected tissue lose blood supply and become fatal sources of gangrene. Decomposed bodies remain a vector of transmission

18DNA

Osteomyelitis
