When is The Last Time Your Town Had the Flu?

My latest neighborhood is infected. lol I knew it would happen but couldn't stop it. lol The other day I took a Sim to a beach lot with some townie clerks working there selling some clothes (T-Shirts,lol) and other stuff. I saw one of the cashiers sneezing. Then I saw a townie start sneezing. Eventually over about a week's time while playing on rotation I saw other townies and some of my other Sims sneezing. I was literally avoiding Sims, lol, in case the current Sim I was playing got it, too.

Eventually, this grew into a vermin attack. lol I moved an old lady and four kids into an apartment building, someone turned over the trash and I kept having them call the Landlord to take care of the roaches, but he would show up and start talking to the other residents or just rake up some leaves and leave. I kept calling, he never did clean them up. First all the kids got sick, then the old lady, then before I could lock them in rooms to keep them away from each other they infected other residents on the lot. lol The roaches were still going, and the landlord was still not getting rid of them.

My other Sims on that lot also got the flu because the kids infected them when they went outside. everyone had to go to bed and be kept locked a way from each other. The roach problem kept happening so I finally just had to move out all my Sims on that apartment lot and play them each at at time and quarateen each one of them in a different house. But the townies are sick so I can't let many of them go anywhere in case they get reinfected with a cold that will turn into the flu if they keep spreading it. But it was two problems in one, roaches on an apartment lot, and townies in town also sick.

When is the last time you had to find the one Sim that spread a virus and made the entire town sick? I may have solved the kids in that household from spreading the flu for now, but it's for sure they will probably be reinfected if they go to any community lot since it was townies that were sneezing and that illness hasn't been solved. I saw many of my own Sims interact with other sick townies so it's just a matter of time before every household is sick in all the neighborhood.
