Using the plague type: Virus. You can effectively infect and kill with this pathogen by following these tips. A little overview of a virus: has the ability to mutate at random.

10 Tips to using a Virus Pathogen.

1. Do not sell more than 4 total symptoms. You will begin to waste more DNA than you can afford for only staying invisible.

2. Keep an eye on the cure. Even though your Virus will mutate, still watch the cure and keep it below 95%.

3.Never pick a rich starting country with Virus. In some cases, it is smart to cripple rich countries; but to play it safe with this pathogen I recommend either India or China as a starting country. High population density and access to airports.

4.Purchase Transmissions! I see people wondering why their virus is spreading so slow. Invest in a minimum of 4 transmissions, but still keep DNA for lethal symptoms.

5.Kill and infect with the dead. Buy Necrosis symptom so that dead bodies become a vector of transmission. This risks those in labs being exposed, along with higher infection rates.

6.Anemia+Necrosis. Good combo for infection rates. Worth the DNA but remember to only use this in the later stages of your plague.

The only port into Greenland comes from Norway.

8.Stay invisible. Remember to devolve at least the first 4 symptoms. This allows the infected to raise less concern and continue the spread of infection.

9.NEVER EVER BUY VIRAL INSTABILITY. Unless you like a very hard challenge, or are very far into the game with DNA to spare.

Casual Gameplay Tips

Bacteria

1. Bacteria has a special ability: Bacterial Resilience. 

This ability can be used to infect Greenland and

other cold climates.

2. Bacteria can go unnoticed for a long time.

Keep your severity down, and don't become

lethal until you are ready to kill.

Virus

1. The Virus pathogen is hard to control.

Sell the first 3-4 mutated traits to stay hidden.

Do not waste points devolving after 4.

2. Starting countries matter. Saudi Arabia has a very 

active airport and has a shipyard.

3. Never use Viral Instability. 

It creates a more risky setting for you to control

your disease, which means you will not be able

to stay hidden and a cure will be developed quickly.

Fungus

-The Fungus Pathogen gives even experienced players a run against the cure. As the fungus has very low natural transmission, you need to create the right balance between transmitting and severity throughout the game. For an in-depth guide on how to defeat humanity every time with Fungus, on any difficulty: Click Here.-

1. This is one of the hardest plagues 

for beginners. Be patient and learn strategy.

2. Fungus has trouble with transmission.

Only purchase Spore Burst a maximum of 3 times.

Or you will be wasting DNA you could have bought

a transmission with.

3. Keep away from the cure. 

You need to be patient with this pathogen,

allow it to infect 40% of the population before

you are seen.
