Remove viruses from random events - poland spring - 03-11-2016
To this date I've never seen one of them ever do anything significant, except give a few people the sniffles. Apparently they can't even be cured by virology, either. I'd much rather have ANY of the other events happen, which are all more interesting and Fun.

The random disease code still uses the old virus code instead of pathology, I'll see if i can submit a patch to change this.

Marq basically straight up asked for symptom suggestions. We need to just get together and shove a whole bunch of dumb ideas in a thread. You eventually come out with a few gems that way.

How about a pathology symptom that causes your limbs to slowly fall off.

Fall off... and crawl away... and grow into a miniature clone of yourself? Starfishitis?

Slowly developing argyria. You're fine healthwise, but you become blue-grey, and any reactions involving silver can occur without the silver if all other conditions are met in your body. (That is, the disease is supplying the silver for the reaction to take place). It's not especially crazy, but if everything is super wacky, it would get a bit tiring.
