PANDEMIC
The Medic has cured the yellow disease! The new cards are Buenos Aires(Yellow) and Seoul(Red). Meanwhile plague spreads in Bangkok (outbreak!) and Lagos.
Here's the situation.

PANDEMIC
I'm not seeing a lot I can do on this turn. I could treat Tehran, move to Mumbai, and treat once at Mumbai. That will take Mumbai off the brink and bring our black plague supply back up to 12.
PANDEMIC
Sounds good to me. I really think Red Cure should be our next priority, given the cards we have.
PANDEMIC
I think that sounds good. On my next turn I'm planning to cure Osaka and head towards Bangkok; if you're headed that way too, you can slip me some Red cards if there's the opportunity.
PANDEMIC
I made my moves. Treat Tehran, double move to Mumbai and treat Mumbai. I then drew Miami(Yellow) and Osaka(Red). Plague spreads in Taipei and Essen.

Where are those event cards?
PANDEMIC
We are doing ridiculously poorly for event cards, which is particularly damaging given we have a Contingency Planner. (Speaking of, I figure our CP should use their turn to take either Istanbul or Bogota off the boil. Maybe Bogota? There's no one else around there and we have the cure for that one.)
Getting ahead of things a little, but Research person, I'm thinking on my turn I move to Chennai, curing Bangkok on the way. On your turn, if you come to Chennai, build a research station and pass me Red cards, on my turn after that I can take whatever remaining Red I need and make the cure. How's that sound?
PANDEMIC
I endorse the Chennai plan. In the meantime, my orders are:
Triple move to Bogota
Treat Bogota, clearing it with the cure.
PANDEMIC
Mr. CP has moved to Bogota and cleared it out of yellow plague. The draw was Johannesburg(Yellow) and Jakarta(Red). Meanwhile black and yellow plague spread in Algiers and Santiago.

I'm starting to get that ominous feeling we are overdue for an epidemic.
PANDEMIC
Yeah, I've been kind of expecting one for a couple of turns now. Would've been nice to get an event card (WHICH OUTNUMBER THEM) first, but there you go.
Anyway, let's enact the plan.
