− | + | The '''flu''' is a [[disease]] in RimWorld that can be caught by your colonists. General symptoms include impaired consciousness, manipulation, breathing, and eventually vomiting. Advanced symptoms include frequent vomiting, a small amount of pain, and eventually death - along with the general symptoms. The disease occurs at 33.3% progress towards death, but also 34.7% immunity in a young, healthy individual. The Flu is a somewhat easy disease to beat, requiring only a modest (healthy) doctor with ordinary, or even herbal medicine; for healthy colonists, you can simply let the disease progress on its own. | |

− | + | As the Flu immunizes faster than it develops, it's extremely easy to take care of. It only proves a major threat to those above the age of 40, but even then you don't need a very skilled doctor - or very good medicine to dispatch of the disease. | |
− | + | If left untreated, the flu can kill ''vulnerable'' people in 4.018 days. <br> | |
+ | It takes 3.431 days to develop immunity to the flu, assuming the patient is rested in an ordinary bed for the whole time, and under the age of 40. | ||

− | + | As the flu's a somewhat trivial disease as it immunises quicker than it deteriorates, you don't really need to be terribly mindful of treatment of those below 40. | |

− | + | However, giving treatments slows the disease, preventing it from affecting your colonists much and speeds up recovery after immunity is gained. | |

− | + | The following will apply to 80+ year old victims affected by the flu. | |
− | + | As with any patient, you'll want to make sure the people affected by the flu are in bed at all times, well-fed, and treated when necessary. You need to provide at least 30% treatment quality in order for 80+ year old patients to survive the flu - as long as their [[Blood_Filtration|blood filtration]] levels are normal. You'll generally want to aim higher than this though, as 30% quality is the bare minimum needed to survive, and may not always work. | |
