Death

If you do not use Antibiotics by the end of stage three you will die.

Note: Damage is different from health, damage can be mitigated by armour or other effect, health is a direct effect on the characters health.

Healing

• Jar of Honey will cure 5% of Infection.
• Herbal Antibiotics will cure 10% of Infection, as well as all stages of Dysentery.
