Trivia

  • On rare occasions, paranoia can cause a country to be so paranoid that it will remove a major part of its contribution to a cure.
  • When combined with Insanity, it can cause nuclear explosions, which are said to be sabotaged power plants. However, it's likely that this is just countries nuking each other.
  • If the player uses the "Sympto-stasis" gene for the Nano-Virus genetic code, this symptom along with Insomnia, Paralysis and Coma won't cost any DNA.
