Constantly ill in Frostline

[Glimmhand 0]

Hey!

I'm having some trouble with illness in Frostline DLC.

For some reason, I'm permanently facing the symptoms:

• Vomiting
• Blurry Vision
• Fever

in Frostline DLC. I do not know the origin therefore I'm here for help. All I consumed was Reindeer meat (Cooked or Roasted) and Water from a well. The Water was sometimes cooked (sometimes cooked with meat in it, sometimes not), sometimes uncooked. I try to treat the illness with Tetracycline and/or Multivitamin Pills, and it vanishes after ~2 Pills of either sort. However, not long after I will start vomiting again, the illness-symbol pops up and i start anew.

Apart from that, I'm well hydrated, well fed and more or less warm. Blood and Health are maxed.

It seriously kills the game a little for me atm, since I cannot tell what to do to avoid that.

Hi Glimmhand, 

Skinned an animal without gloves and ate with dirty hands?
Your hands may be dirty, there is a visual clue (blood on your hands if your hands are dirty).
You will need to wash them.

If you're vomiting and making pain noise then it's Salmonellosis.

The symptom of fever accompanied with faster rate of hydration depletion might be Cholera.

I'm having a similar issue on livonia. From what I can tell its water not getting treated from treatment tablets for me but I hope you can solve your issue.

You're right tho, being sick on every character is very game killing.

Thank you for your suggestions!

I have surgical gloves equipped (damaged), and the water has been cooked or is from a well - i know there is heavy metal poisoning in Sakhal, but as far as I was informed, wells should not be contaminated? Therefore, I guess it's neither the dirty hands nor the water, I drink...

News:

The symptoms lead me to believe, it's cholera. Cholera is transmitted by unclean water or a container, an infected player drank from. Since I drank from all my containers, while being ill, they're probably all contaminated. Do I have to get rid of them or can I desinfect them?

Either by adding not only cooked, but still cooking water, or chlorine tablets or alcoholic tincture/iodine?
