Questions regarding illnesses

[SagaTheDragon]

So, I got swarm by one of the COUNTLESS LEGIONS OF RATS. First by two, then five, then three, just all over the place. I was bit by the first but the idea of trying to avoid getting sick with these malicious guys seems near impossible. To the main point...

This isn't how to cure that, people are already asking that.

I wanna know if you can die from the illness, or if illness will pass with time. If it's just a really annoying debuff, I can live with that. If I'm gonna die, I wanna make sure I can get cure...or die where somewhere safe. If the illness passes eventually then I'll just wait it out and resume playing.

It wont kill you but it doesn't look like it goes away either, you just keep getting sicker and sicker.

Well then I won't worry about it~ Honestly I would get a cure...but with how many rat there are, the chance of staying healthy after getting cured makes it pointless.

Eventually you are going to loose more time to coughing, dizziness and vomiting then you would loose to constantly curing it. Especially since once enough data is found to properly diagnose people in a timely manner it will simply be a matter of applying the appropriate treatment.
