PANDEMIC
Your orders have been implemented Medic Gestalt and current situation is pictured below...
Your drew Madrid(Blue) and Shanghai(Red) and you are still under the seven card limit.
Meanwhile the Yellow Disease has infected Lagos and Lima.
Flames wouldn't be eternal if they actually consumed anything.

I'll go ahead and do my Researcher turn. I'm going to fly to Tehran, treat the zombie plague once, then catch a train to Karachi, and then finally drive to Mumbai.
Oh no, bad things happened. I drew Ho Chi Minh City and an Epidemic. The Epidemic put Istanbul on the brink, turned the situation worse in Chicago, and put Osaka on the brink.Things are starting to get a little scary in Asia.
The situation:

MMMph. If Medic had gotten a 3rd Yellow I'd definitely say go for it. As it is, I'm still inclined to stick to the plan, to keep Yellow from getting out of control while we put out fires in Asia.
You guys have played more of this than me, what do you think?

Istanbul, Mumbai, and/or Bangank are pretty likely to outbreak soon. Osaka is safe for the moment unless another epidemic comes up right away which isn't very likely.
If you burn your Mumbai card, we could defuse Mumbai. And if Istanbul doesn't outbreak after your turn, then Medic Gestalt could burn his Madrid card and treat Istanbul.
OTOH, we aren't set up for any chain reactions and Medic Gestalt could get to Algiers by the end of his turn while still picking up your two yellow cards. That will set us up to get the first cure pretty soon. Also we won't have burned two black cards super early in the game.
I'm also inclined to stick to the plan. Things might get kinda hairy in Asia, but we can get positioned to put out the fire pretty quickly.
Let's just hope they don't decide to reopen the bars in any of those cities.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I think we stick to the plan too. We might get a hit in the short term, but ultimately we need cures to end the game.

All right then. My actions are:
Move to Miami
Move to Bogota
Pass Bogota card to Medic
Move to Sao Paulo
bt, depending on the consequences of this, you might consider treating in Bogota before you move.
Hit it, Gud.

Okay. Our Medic now has 3 yellow cards and you are in San Paulo. You drew St. Petersburg(Blue) and Kinshasa(Yellow).
So then, Istanbul and Tehran had infections and Asia is getting overrun by Zombies. Istanbul was an outbreak, and now Tehran is on the brink.
So here's the situation...

Bingo! Medic, grab the card from me and head to Kinshasa. We should be able to have our first cure on your next turn.
