From Plague Inc. Wiki
Rodent is a basic Transmission present in most Plagues. By allowing the Pathogen to spread through flea and rodents, it increases Infectivity, specially in Urban Countries, and Mutation.
Variations
Neurax Worm
The Neurax Worm variant slightly increases Severity, which may result in an early detection of the disease. It helps worm eggs survive in rats, and the second stage makes rats attack humans. It does not increase the Mutation rate.
| Trait
|
Description
|
| 1st Stage
|
"Worm eggs attach themselves to the fur of rats, which increases their infectiousness, especially in urban environments"
|
| 2nd Stage
|
"Worm eggs secrete neurochemical that drives rats to attack humans, increasing infectivity, especially in urban environments"

Government Actions
Standard Plagues
If the first stage of this Transmission is evolved, after the disease is noticed, governments may start to exterminate rats, decreasing national Infection rates by 3. If this first action is taken, and the second stage is evolved, governments may start to exterminate all rodents, decreasing national Infection rates by 6.[1]
