Hello all, I was wondering if it was possible to get infected, heal and keep the skin, and get infected with a different virus in one survival season.

I thought I signed up for death slug, but I was mistaken...

It was possible last year, so I'm thinking it will be again as this year's structured much the same way.

It takes some planning, but it definitely can be done. I think I managed to get four skins last year. Two should definitely be achievable. c:

Edit: And there's no healing necessary, you'll just need to go to the wardrobe, take off the final stage virus skin, and then go pick the new strain you want on the VIP page.

I think I got three or four skins last year?

I got four last year. It depends on how fast you get infected the first time, but three should be no problem i you're able to be online the same day your viruses finish. They'll finish progressing past the end of Survival

Awesome! Thank you. I'm really hoping I can get Death Slug...

but does the virus spread depending on if you're online?

Nope. IIRC, you automatically advance to the next stage in 6-10 hours. Strains have eight stages, so that's a minimum of 48 hours (two days) and a max of 80 hours (little over three days) to go from initial infection to final stage!

- Your virus will continue to progress at the same rate whether you're online or not.
