Tip : It is a good idea to mass produce vaccine once an outbreak begins. After you vaxed yourself, you still need to produce more vaccines. It is also a good idea to stash a good number of vaccine for the cloned ones, as they would loss all immunity to all previous infections

(tag : lethal , non infectious)


A deadly sickness that kills quickly. You will need a minimum of 15 units of Phalanximine to cure it.
[[Chemistry#chem_Spaceacillin|Spaceacillin]] is an excellent drug that can used to cure most of the common illness or even some of the more serious ones.

I have made a [https://www.desmos.com/calculator/njnzhztz3n simple graph] to visualize how it is calculated.
(tag : lethal , admin spawn only , infectious)
 
Disease resistent : 0.25 (not possible to cure with Spaceacillin)
 
Spreads rapidly and causes OwO-speak, it also will add Ephedrine to the host's body system , making the host ran faster and a little stun resist. After roughly 25 minutes , the overdose effect of Ephedrine will kick in , and quickly kill its host.
The containment procedure is to put on a bio-hazard suit and contain everyone who is infected, keeping them away from the non-infected population. You will need Theobromine of 10 units to cure this.

You could develop a drug that postpone the lethal effect of OwOnavirus , making you have owo-speak whilst surviving, and having all the buffs. (note you will still be contagious , so good luck outrunning sec that hunts for the infected)
== Kill , Clone , Vaccinate ==
There are two ways to approach this:


1. outheal the overdose damage
When dealing with a deadly disease you do not know how to treat, like owonagen or bleeders bite. You can produce the vaccine from a infected dead body and give that vaccine to anyone that was cloned. That way, everyone coming out of the cloning pod area would be immune to the disease.
You would need a cocktail of Ultravasculine & Dex+ , and add in some tricord to heal the brute damage caused by Ultravasculine. Since Ultravasculine is difficult to aquire in bulk (as a non T) . This method should be used on cigars , where the amount of drug you put in there doesn't matter .
(note this approach has a flaw where if the Ephedrine buildup managed to reach the max cap of chem your body can hold , you will still die of overdose. But it would take a long time)


2. change part of the Ephedrine in your body to Desoxyephedrine
== Overpowering OwOnavirus == <!-- TODO: give this a better title -->
If you managed to change part of the Ephedrine to Desoxyephedrine , it would mean part of the Ephedrine would be metabolised faster (0.5/s + 0.125/s vs 0.5/s). But Desoxyephedrine will cause stuttering and Poison damage , which the former + the owospeak will almost completely remove your ablilty to speak something others will understand. And because you cannot see what is in your body (it is possible to know that you have more than 20u of  Ephedrine when the overdose effect kicks in) , you would need to take the medicine blind.
Not a suggested method unless you know exactlly what you are doing


=== Space Cold ===
You can develop a drug that postpones the lethal effect of OwOnavirus; meaning you will still have owo-speak, but at least you won't die! ''(note: you will still be contagious, so good luck outrunning sec when they start hunting the infected)''


There are two ways to make such a drug:


=== Vent Cough ===
1. Outhealing the overdose damage
(tag : non lethal , infectious)


literally just lay on a bed for 30 second
You would need a mix of [[Chemistry#chem_Ultravasculine|Ultravasculine]] & [[Chemistry#chem_DexalinPlus|Dexalin Plus]] with some [[Chemistry#chem_Tricordrazine|Tricordrazine]] (to compensate for the brute damage caused by Ultravasculine). Since Ultravasculine is difficult to acquire in bulk (as a non T), this method should be used on cigars (as the amount of drug you put in there doesn't matter).


=== Van Ausdall's Robovirus ===
''(note: if the Ephedrine buildup manages to reach the max cap of chem your body can hold, you will still die of overdose however it would take a long time)'' <!-- todo: paraphrase so this makes more sense -->


(tag : non lethal , infectious , can be wait out)
2. Change part of the Ephedrine in your body to [[Chemistry#chem_Desoxyephedrine|Desoxyephedrine]]


=== AMIV ===
Phosphorus, iodine, ephedrine and carbon make desoxyphedrine. If you manage to change the Ephedrine in your body to Desoxyephedrine, part of the Ephedrine would be metabolised faster ''(0.5/s + 0.125/s vs 0.5/s)''.
(tag : non lethal , infectious , can be wait out)


Contain this illness as fast as possible as well, for not only does it spread quickly and cause chaos as the OwOnavirus, but it also can cause crime. Standard containment procedure is recommended.
Unfortunately, Desoxyephedrine will cause stuttering and Poison damage. That, plus the owo-speak will almost completely remove your ability to speak comprehensibly. And since you cannot see exactly what is in your body, you need to take the medicine blind. <!-- Somehow incorporate this: (you can only tell if you have overdosed on something) -->
Not a suggested method unless you know ''exactly'' what you are doing.
== Beating the Zombie Outbreak on the station.==
First thing. DO NOT GO TO MEDBAY UNLESS THE CHEMIST MADE ZOMBIE CURE. Because Medbay is the primary target for the zombies. Second, get to sec or a place that is very very far from Medbay or the middle. Third, you need to get some kind of weapon that can hit long ranges. (Ex: Spears if you use it correctly, Guns, etc.)
If your a Sec officer. You have 2 ways. Reinforce Sec or kill many zombies as possible.

Utilizing Spacecillin

Spaceacillin is an excellent drug that can used to cure most of the common illness or even some of the more serious ones.

I have made a simple graph to visualize how it is calculated.

Non-Infectious

Disease Symptoms Treatment Notes
Ultragigacancer No symptoms seem to be present. Phalanximine (15u) Is caused by a traitor item that resembles a medical scanner.

Kill , Clone , Vaccinate

When dealing with a deadly disease you do not know how to treat, like owonagen or bleeders bite. You can produce the vaccine from a infected dead body and give that vaccine to anyone that was cloned. That way, everyone coming out of the cloning pod area would be immune to the disease.

Overpowering OwOnavirus

You can develop a drug that postpones the lethal effect of OwOnavirus; meaning you will still have owo-speak, but at least you won't die! (note: you will still be contagious, so good luck outrunning sec when they start hunting the infected)

There are two ways to make such a drug:

1. Outhealing the overdose damage

You would need a mix of Ultravasculine & Dexalin Plus with some Tricordrazine (to compensate for the brute damage caused by Ultravasculine). Since Ultravasculine is difficult to acquire in bulk (as a non T), this method should be used on cigars (as the amount of drug you put in there doesn't matter).

(note: if the Ephedrine buildup manages to reach the max cap of chem your body can hold, you will still die of overdose however it would take a long time)

2. Change part of the Ephedrine in your body to Desoxyephedrine

Phosphorus, iodine, ephedrine and carbon make desoxyphedrine. If you manage to change the Ephedrine in your body to Desoxyephedrine, part of the Ephedrine would be metabolised faster (0.5/s + 0.125/s vs 0.5/s).

Unfortunately, Desoxyephedrine will cause stuttering and Poison damage. That, plus the owo-speak will almost completely remove your ability to speak comprehensibly. And since you cannot see exactly what is in your body, you need to take the medicine blind. Not a suggested method unless you know exactly what you are doing.

Beating the Zombie Outbreak on the station.

First thing. DO NOT GO TO MEDBAY UNLESS THE CHEMIST MADE ZOMBIE CURE. Because Medbay is the primary target for the zombies. Second, get to sec or a place that is very very far from Medbay or the middle. Third, you need to get some kind of weapon that can hit long ranges. (Ex: Spears if you use it correctly, Guns, etc.) If your a Sec officer. You have 2 ways. Reinforce Sec or kill many zombies as possible.
