The Infant illness is a deadly disease that affects human babies on a sick birth.
Overview
Infant illness comes at 4 levels: common, mild, major, and grave, in order of severity. Mild infant illness will regress on its own, but a grave illness is nearly impossible to survive. Every 1-3 days, the illness will switch to a random phase.
The disease is cured after 10 days of survival, or if severity falls to 0.
Prevention
Infant illness can only be contacted at birth, and is dependent on its quality. Performing labor in a clean room, with a skilled doctor and loved ones, reduces the chance of being sick. Fostering an embryo in a growth vat acts as a natural birth with a quality of 70%. The storyteller setting, Babies always healthy prevents sick births from happening at all.
Stages
These are the following stages in which infant illness will progress through.
| Stage | Begins at | Symptoms |
|---|---|---|
| Infant illness (minor) | 0 - 0.32 severity |
|
| Infant illness (major) | 0.33 - 0.77 severity |
|
| Infant illness (extreme) | 0.78 - 0.86 severity |
|
| Infant illness (extreme) | 0.87 - 1.00 severity |

Progression
- Severity increase depends on the severity of the disease. Without treatment:
- Severity increase for mild infant illness is -0.25 per day.
- Severity increase for common infant illness is 0.1 per day.
- Severity increase for bad infant illness is 0.3 per day.
- Severity increase for grave infant illness is 0.5 per day.
- Treatment slows progression by a maximum of 0.35 per day with 100% tend quality.
- Every 1-3 days the severity phase will change.
The disease resolves after ten days or when severity reaches 0.
