* Direct Contact - Requires you to touch, been touched, or be extremely close to the source of the infection. The infection will be spread by the skin and bodily fluids of an infected person, but will not survive long in the air.

* Special - The disease is not normally contagious and the affected crewman has been infected by a non-human vector source. You can work with the infected without risk yourself unless they expose you to the same vector source that infected them.

This machine creates vaccines from the blood of people who have been cured.
Use:
# Take a blood sample with a syringe.
# Place sample into a beaker or bottle.
# Load beaker into machine.
# Select vaccine you wish to have.
# Take vaccine bottle it produces.
Additional uses:
* Reveals the cure to any infected blood sample without needing to inject a living creature.

Thankfully, humanity has managed to cure and eliminate almost all of the diseases that plagued its infancy. However, the vast reaches of space have been found to harbor new illnesses that can affect the unprepared staff on Nanotrasen research stations.

You are able to create your own advance disease with different symptoms, which will have buffs, debuffs and bonuses!
You are able to create your own advance disease with different symptoms, which will have buffs, debuffs and bonuses!
You will start out with two advance diseases, the cold and the flu. The cold will have the sneeze symptom and the flu will have the cough symptoms. This will likely change in the future but for now you have two diseases you can mix together. Mixing together the two diseases will create a single disease with the sneezing AND cold symptom. Now when someone is injected with it, they'll sneeze AND cough! There's some symptoms, like headaches, which seem useless but will buff your overall disease so it becomes more resistant to cures.

====How To Get More Symptoms====
====Modifying Symptoms====
 
There's two ways to get more symptoms and both of those ways needs you to have an already existing disease.

=====Virus Food=====
* '''Virus Food''': You can make virus food with Water, Milk and Oxygen. Mixing this with a disease will give that disease a '''low level symptom'''.
* '''Unstable Mutagen''': You can use mutagen to mutate your disease and give it a '''medium level symptom'''.
* '''Liquid Plasma''': Plasma can be used to mutate your disease to give it any '''symptom regardless of level'''. Plasma in liquid form is generally in very limited supply, unless mining and chemistry cooperates with you.

*'''Synaptizine''': When this reagent comes in contact with an advance disease, it will '''remove a symptom''' from it. This is useful for isolating a useful symptom you want to acquire.


=====Unstable Mutagen=====
There's a downside to having too many symptoms; less resistance, less likely to spread, etc.
 
Not only that, but if you add a symptom when you already have three, there's a chance it will overwrite a symptom. This is why it's important to organize your symptoms so that you can try and try again until you get the disease you want.

====Being Organized====
====Being Organized====
A true virologist will organize their symptoms in a single beaker box on a shelf, like a spice rack. This will make it extra easy to store and mix symptoms together to get a fearful disease. Use your Pandemic Machine to identify a blood sample's symptoms. You can go one step further and get a hand-labeller and label your symptoms for easier management.

====It Isn't Easy====
====Symptoms Table====
 
Remember. You can obtain symptom levels 1 and 2 with Virus Food, which you start with a dispenser full of. For symptom levels 3 and 4 you will need to acquire Unstable Mutagen. Levels 5 and 6 requires liquid plasma.
