Synergy with Pathology

[Frank_Stein]

No fuck genetics, plus that'd allow them to become the tk-laser eyed-completely resistant-hulk they would want to be by circumventing the instability.

I agree. Pathogens shouldn't give people genetic mutations, it'd just be too powerful. It's more about giving the pathogens themselves the mutations, then adding those mutations as one of the symptoms of the pathogen - like the honey mutation causes a bacteria to make honey, but releases it into the blood stream (probably just as sugar) rather than letting people create honey like the mutation normally does. I'm not sure what something like hulk or laser eyes would do to a pathogen, but it certainly shouldn't make someone a genetically decked out beast.

I can see some neat effects. Like, adding Telekinesis to a disease makes it transmissible by memetics like speech.
