The '''flu''' is a [[disease]] easy to beat for normal people, requiring only a modest (healthy) doctor with ordinary, or even herbal medicine; it is however frequently fatal to those with severely weakened immune systems. | The '''flu''' is a [[disease]] easy to beat for normal people, requiring only a modest (healthy) doctor with ordinary, or even herbal medicine; it is however frequently fatal to those with severely weakened immune systems. | ||
− | + | Flu immunizes faster than it develops, taking only 3.32 days to develop immunity, assuming the patient is rested in an ordinary bed for the whole time, is under the age of 40 and has normal blood filtration. However, the base rate is still slightly faster than the immunity gain rate; if left completely ignored and the pawn is deprived of sufficient rest or food, there is a chance that normal pawns can still die from it. | |

+ | Flu only starts to proves a threat to people without fully functioning immune system, such as those age above 50, or with kidney damage. For those either extremely old or with little blood filtration remaining, there is little chance they will be able to survive even with the best facilities and healthcare as good treatment does not slow disease progression by much, and you will have to resort to [[luciferium]] or modded bionics to keep them alive. | ||

+ | Make sure they are in bed at all times, well-fed, and treated when necessary. You need to provide at least 30% treatment quality - as long as their [[Blood_Filtration|blood filtration]] levels are normal. You'll generally want to aim higher than this though, as 30% quality is the bare minimum needed to survive, and may not always work. | ||
