Pandemic 2 Blog

I wasn't successful in creating a pandemic since there were survivors in Peru, Argentina and Madagascar because the diseases did not spread fast enough into the country and before the disease could infect anyone they closed off the transits, airports and ship routes too early. My methods of transmission was by rodents, insects, waterborne and airborne. The initial symptoms were fever and sweating. My pathogen being a bacteria evolved by spreading to different regions and increasing the symptoms such as nausea, blinding, heart and liver failure and many more without actually having a working vaccine/cure to it. The difference between a bacteria and virus pathogen is that a bacteria is able to spread faster than a virus and the cure to a virus is more easier to be found than to a bacteria since viruses are something that can easily grow and be figured out.

Isolating the source place from other places and providing nearby places with masks and support is the best strategy that saves the most people while sacrificing a few. Since the disease will not be able to spread anywhere besides within the same place providing vaccine to only one place would be less expensive and life threatening.
