If we lose this, it's 100% going to be because all the useful events showed up one round too late.
Also, if you use the Airlift now, I can grab it and reuse on my turn.

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

PANDEMIC
The Medic is airlifted to Santiago to cleanse disease to the masses.
