Osaka Flu?

Looking for a Neighbor who visits my town with his flu. Never thought that i would say that :D
Ingame: ZeBadmedic

Me too. The quest line with Lisa and Hibbert just started. Looking for a walk through.

OK so I'm thinking...perhaps we don't do anything to spread it. Like hit a button or something. Maybe it's spread by the frequency of neighbor visits. Like the more neighbors you visit/visit you, the faster the numbers of infected rise. Random...everyone is not guaranteed to give the infection, but the higher the number of neighbor visits, the better your chances.

Did I state that clearly? If so, what does everyone else think?

Here's my guess - the higher your severity, the more contagious you are and the more people you can infect. So, you can probably still spread it at a lower severity, but you will not infect as many of your neighbours.

Also, once you have gotten the flu - I think the severity might increase with the amount of tourists you clear in your town (not sure if tapping buildings in neighbours towns increases it - haven't gotten to today's neighbours visits).

Not sure if I have gotten that right. But I think it sounds somewhat logical. :)

EDIT: someone just quoted me on this, and I don't think they saw that I said I was wrong about the tourists below, so I'll add this here too in case it gets quoted again:

I was wrong about the tapping tourists in my own town increasing the severity. I checked and it does seem that clearing the pins left by neighbours increased the severity :)

When's does this quest start?

No, severity increases with the number of pins (shields) that you tap in your own town. I was infected this AM. I visited towns and tapped. Nothing on severity increase. Eventually those people came back to my town and tapped 3 buidlings and left pins (shields). THEN I tapped those and my severity increased one tick with each shield. EVERY pin shield at that point so far tapped from a neighbor visit increases my severity.

Just got infected and doing neighbor visits....hopefully helping someone out ;)

I just got an update, went out of my game and back in. Started then. Not sure from reading this thread how the quest line goes either. Is this new?

Has this appeared for you yet?

What makes it appear?

I'm not sure what your refering to .

Still haven't had this happen. And I've visited friends already. Is this still a random thing?

I now have the flu as well. Thanks to the neighbor that brought it to my town.
