Well the whole game is luck, theres a big chance you will not get that one island....even if you started in Madagascar, cuba might not catch it....Its basicly blackjack, you have to have skill to play, but alot of luck helps.

1)Pick Virus. 2)Start in Canada, New Zealand, Cuba, Greenland, or Madagascar.If you do not get there restart. 3)Sell starting symptoms, if any, and buy sneezing (unless it is what you started with, just keep it). 4)Buy 1-1-1-0 resistances but no transmissions (they trigger closures). 5) Once three countries are infected, sell sneezing to get rid of visibility. 6)Wait until all countries are infected. If Madagascar closes its shipyards or is not infected in 30 days, restart. 7)Buy all four drug resistances, sneezing, coughing, and vomiting. 8)After a few days, unlock tiers 2-3, keeping whatever symptoms it gives you. 9)Buy fever, fatigue, diarrhea, pulmonary edema, and hypersensitivity. 10) Wait until everyone dies. Keep this comment alive.

How do you ever get all those islands infected? Like Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Madagaskar, Cuba, Greenland? I never seem to make it... :( Get all the resistances first and then the symptoms? Or which symptoms are ok to spread without being noticed?

Okay, something has gone terribly wrong. I breached all borders within 25 days, had the entire population infected by 40, and they still took about 130 to finish dying. I had the recommended traits, plus like, three 4th tier ones. What else can I do? :P

Really, guys? A new strain of influenza hits and everyone is worried that this is becoming a real life situation? I love the game, but daaaamn. Relax, y'all.

I don't take credit for it, but i used it and it works....Try to get Madagascar first then rest should be easy if you follow the guideline.

Somewhat crude joke...
Well, this game has taught us one thing: if the swine flu DOES end up becoming something insane, we should all move to Madagascar.

I was just about to start a new game right after madagascar closed its shipyards, but right as I was going to click menu a stray ship sailed to madagascar and infected it.

I love how 2/3 of the world closes borders, enforces martial law, hands out masks and water bottles, and shuts down all schools to combat a disease with literally NO symptoms. Brilliant.

Bad news ladies...I just played pandemic and I started in mexico...I named my virus "Swine Flu" and well...The only country that will make it through this is... you guessed it, Madagascar...Fu*king MADAGASCAR!! why do they always close their borders so quickly?!!!

i used CNVLSA's comment and it helped out. definitely completed it in about 90 days. i never continued up until drug IV, i just kept it drug I. if you just use your evolutionary points on the symptoms after you infect the world, you wind up destroying the hospitals that make the vaccine. it's frustrating at first, but it eventually works. everything else said in that comment i agree with. i found the best two starting places to been greenland and new zealand personally.

Wow.....Madagascar is like invulnerable to almsot every disease I bring out, besides this one time I got it infected. Other way is to start on Madagascar
