First time post on here but the game has me hooked and I hope it will go far and I'm willing to stick with it and hope to give positive feedback to the benefit of the game through various stages all the way to release. My take on this though would be if we were susceptible to the disease or able to catch it while alive, we wouldn't be alive right now to be a survivor as with a persistant world this wouldn't make much sense. It seems like it could be used in some way though as in a different type of server where maybe getting hit by a zombie at all gives a chance for infection that if not cured will turn you within 24 hours. Maybe not make all servers like this but it would be interesting for a "hardcore" or increased risk type of game.
