I got almost every one immune and few dead with no infected but the dumb asses in Minnesota (which was the farthest away from any infected Countries) started to riot and loot then the rest of them followed suit and I lost due to panic. I would have nuked them to teach the others to behave......... 4/5

Tips:
-Washington's Seaport always leads to early-game headaches. Close it. While you're at it, close any other air/seaports in non-infected areas.
-Florida is always a bitch. Roadblock it and hope it stays down.
-Military support + Vaccine = 2-day statewide immunity.
-Never let the virus get to the midwest. A lack of hospitals and an abundance of roads makes for a tough battle
-Form lines of healthy, immune states to stop the spread

How to get the Iceberg Achivement:
I did research. There was an operation Eisberg that happened on April 1. Beat the game on any difficulty on that date. The screen might look all messed up. People on the Kong forums HAVE done it before.

So I saw that one of my orange areas suddenly turned dark green... Then I realized it was becuase all the infected people died.

Wtf. There was less than 5000 people infected in the whole country (and they were all in California) and then people decide they want to riot NATIONWIDE (which is apparently NOT on my side) and the country reaches 100% panic. That was so stupid.

Person 1:"It's great how the government cares about us even if we are infected!"
Person 2:"Is that a nuclear bomb that plane just dropped?"

As an addendum to ShinodaII's strategy (which was indeed helpful)... I found that closing the hospitals in the states that have a ~100% Vaccinated Living population can give you more daily funds to disburse vaccines in states that do not have them and have healthy > infected pop.s. As after the vaccine's been developed, the states that have them will be automatically disbursing them 'til that point.

So easy with open government. Just spam masks at everything that moves and use info campaign on recharge. And deport foreigners, which really doesn't fit with open government. Oh well.

If you want a lazy win on the hard modes...
Don't even bother with borders, airports etc.
1. Rapidly hand out masks as fast as you can (initially) and stack money until vaccine is researched.
2. Hand out vaccine to all infected zones.
3. Go completely broke from handing out a wild amount of vaccines.
4. Stop handing out vaccines to everyone.
5. Stack about 50k
6. Hand out vaccines again to a few states at a time I liked to pick the highest population of "healthy" ones and keep handing out vaccines until I was in the mid to low 300,000's.
Occasionally you might need to throw out some masks to lower panic
you should win around 25-35 this way.

Defeat by time?! So after 40 days, when I immunilized 80% of the population, brought the infected portion down to 12,000, I lose? So what happens? Dose the virus go "Mwahahaha! It has been 40 days! Now the planet explodes!!!!!" Seriously?!

Pandemic 1 and 2: Destroy the entire world. Pandemic 3: Save the world. Hey! Don't ruin the series! Give us back our apocalypse! We're heartless, we don't want to save, we want to kill! You should have called it Anti-Pandemic!

Make sure you can contain the virus early. Curfew or hand out masks to Texas, California, and Florida. Close all seaports and airports in clean regions. Keep them open in infected regions. Once the vaccine is available, start in Florida and contain the virus in New Mexico and Nevada. Keep borders open unless it reaches 5% chance of infection or so. If you use Curfew and Masks effectively, this game should be no problem to beat at all.

Henrik, if you can't even spell 'release' right, then you're in no position to have your jokes laughed at.
This game is awesome, though I wish there were loans!

in order for a land to be cleansed 90% of the population must die. the other ten either are immune or just plain lucky.

I shut down all airports and seaports and closed all borders. So how does Wyoming get infected when it's NOT EVEN NEAR AN INFECTED STATE?!

The swine flu is not to deadly if you have nothing other than it but I am not going for the details saying one little mistake makes everything in it unrealistic, but still in the first few weeks after it hit only one person died but he/she had something else along with it.

News Reporter: Live at the scene, the vaccine has just been handed out. People are now immune to the disease! (Puts hand on ear mic) What?.... Oh... This just in, the player has not yet got the easy badge. I don't know what this has to do with us, but... AHH WHAT IS FALLING FROM THE SK..

News: it seems the governement has taken extreme measures of reducing the swine flu by nuking Las Vegas
Me: Wait, it was infected? I just wanted to push the red button.

When you're trying to eradicate the flu completely from a region, close the airports and ports completely there until it's gone (normally you'll want foreign travel enabled)- curfews can help keep the population at 100% immunised vs 99.9%.
