93 confirmed cases in Madagascar. Call it a draw.

That's what happens if you don't keep your symptom mutations in check early.

If Trump had bought it, it would be dead by now, or bailed out by Putin and Friends.

Not really news.  In areas where everyone has been tested, the high projection of mortality rate seems to be about 0.36%.  Not really shocking that 11/11 would recover.

I'll be more shocked if the US economy or Constitutional rights ever recover.

And since people cannot be infected and transmit the disease without symptoms, that means that there is no virus there.

I should know.  I'm consulting Governor Kemp.

unless you are playing virus. then its spam transmission upgrades and let the virus mutate. also the higher the severity the more DNA points per red bubble you get. on just about all the mega brutal plagues the strategy is to get coughing and pneumonia and then the rash based symptoms up until necrosis. that normally gets you enough dna points to get the level 2 air, water, and drug resistance needed to beat the cure progression.

Its why you don't crank up the fatality until you have like 95+% infected rate

Well, that settles it...I'm going to hop in my rowboat, and social distance myself straight over to Greenland.

So that's why the Orange Foolius wanted to buy Greenland a while back?

Someone needs to evolve extreme zoonosis and hope that one of the cats in Greenland caught it before the humans recovered.

The former?  Yes.  A good chunk will jump back up pretty quickly after the lockdowns are slowly lifted next month.  Full recovery will take a couple years, like any recession.
The latter?  Probably not, but it might.

With republicans in charge, the constitution was already being ripped apart and stopped on.  If Bernie Bros go all Bernie Bro again (and everything I've seen shows they will) and therefore the cheeto is reelected, it'll be set on fire.

Thats what I did, my game ended because Angola got infected last and people died quicker than they got infected, and there was just 40k people left alive there.

"Making It The Only Country With No Active Cases"

Greenland is not a country, it is a territory of Denmark with 55K people.

Just wait long enough and eventually you get the "Spontaneous Infection of Greenland" notification, and you're golden.

Drat!

I had written a nice web graphing program that would display live cases and extrapolate them into the future.  It's been running nicely the last few weeks and has been surprisingly accurate, but now it blew up on Greenland because it didn't handle zero active cases correctly.

An exposed bug I'm happy to see exposed.

Whoa!  I didn't know Greenland had a 100% infection rate.

Or a random bird migration event.

I once had the whole of humanity on its way to certain doom when Iceland euthanized its infected citizens. A random bird migration reinfected the country and they didn't do it again.
