surf_polar 110 Posted April 4, 2015 ?Really liking what I read about the sparse loot, better infected and so on, but I am really curious what people know about the new diseases yet. Has anyone any info on this, how do they spread, infect etc? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raynor009 204 Posted April 4, 2015 So far no. I;ve been drinking for random PET bottles I found but no herpes or other diseases yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoveAffair 329 Posted April 4, 2015 I got sick , I drank out of a canteen i found.. Then became sick. I took 3 anti-biotics/Teridactyles :) what ever there called but it didn't help. I became dizzy and then went unconsious. I stayed that way for like 5 min then just decided to respawn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoveAffair 329 Posted April 4, 2015 I guess purification tablets are a good idea then,Ohh Yea , I learned my lesson. I just figured because i found the new canteen with water it would be ok to drink. The only thing safe is the well water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therandomredstone 432 Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) I'v started putting purification tablets in water bottles, not sure if its doing anything, better safe then sorry tho..It's a waste. If you find a water container, empty it (empty vessel). Then if you fill it up from a well, you won't get sick. But if you fill it up from a pond or creek then you want to add in a purification tablet. hoo-rah. Edited April 4, 2015 by therandomredstone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IgnobleBasterd 161 Posted April 4, 2015 Why the hell didn't they make antibiotics work before putting diseases in? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irl-calibre 744 Posted April 4, 2015 I contracted an illness from a damaged Blood Test Kit which I didn't seem to be able to cure and had to be given several blood transfusions, in the end I got run over by by accident, looting Elektro looking for blood bags and iv kits.. but that was even before .55 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScruffyBandit 382 Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) I got sick from drinking untreated water at low blood. I took anti-biotic, kept myself well fed and watered & the sickness didn't go away, but I also didn't die I just ended up stuck in grey limbo. I assume that means something isn't working right as I would assume I would either die or recover. Edited April 4, 2015 by TheScruffyBandit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need tetracycline to cure your diseases and charcoal tabs for food sickness(drinking disinfectant) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
