But you already clarified it, so I see no need for further debate about it.

Ah, I see. It was the word "another" in your statement. I assumed it would be obvious that for their to be another, there must be others. So I stand by my yes, it is another form of selfishness, and sorry I did not communicate it better ^^

As for this problem, they don't want to be immunised? Fine they keep dying, I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

So kill the infectees, or let them live?

Not exactly. Reston-H has a 95% mortality rate in infectees, but the Leader's plan is to just shoot everyone whom you can't immunize to ensure that it doesn't break out again among his "clean" population,

They don't want Reston-H, they're paranoid of you. They believe you are trying to kill them with the vaccine.

I guess I'd have to take the logical route and help the Leader. Assuming there's no way of winning the people over to let themselves be vaccinated, and they have already caused the outbreak of a disease with a 95% mortality rate, the needs of the many and all that.

[MorleyDev]

Actually I'd be tempted to go straight for blackmail, just issue a threat that if they don't give in by a certain date we'll let him take over and do it anyway. If they still refuse, take the deal. If they give in, well crisis averted.

I would make my own plan:
The state is occupied, then everyone infected. Then everyone who is already sick, will be quarantined to some part of the country, from where everyone who doesn't have the infection is moved elsewhere.

[Darvi]

"Life is the illness. I am the cure."

Seriously now, if there's only a percentage that cannot be immunized, then it should be possible to keep them away from infectees. Also, is it worth it to kill somebody only because they might contract a deadly disease and die anyway? That's a waste of resources and stuff, never mind that those people would live longer, and might not even contract the disease at all.

So here's a compromise: immunize everybody, and if it doesn't work on somebody... well, tough luck, but there's no reason to kill them now if they're gonna die later anyway.

The Leader isn't going to accept that plan. He is perhaps one of the most pragmatic people on the planet. If he invades, the infected cannot be allowed to live.

[Darvi]

If he'd be pragmatic, he wouldn't kill them because it would be stupid and useless.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Killing the infected would prevent the disease from spreading at all, eliminating it from the face of the earth. Hardly "stupid and useless"

[Darvi]

Not if everybody's immunized :V

If someone is infected with Reston-H, it gives way to the potential that it will either mutate around the current vaccine or find fresh human hosts in order to continue propagating. As long as there is someone who is a living infected or open to infection who cannot be given immunization, a disease with Reston-H's infection rate still has the potential to survive.

[Darvi]

Then proceed to plan K.

Also, there's a little thing called quarantine.

Bullets are presumably cheaper and more easily administered than vaccines.

But the point is it's pretty much a package deal. Both or none.

[Bauglir]

From the dictator's perspective, if you accept the deal, it's either-or. A person will either be immunized forcibly, shot, or infected and shot. If you do not accept the deal, it's irrelevant, because presumably the dictator will not have the opportunity to forcibly immunize OR shoot anyone.
