Sure enough no one has done this in all these years. I'll think about what can be done with these numbers and post IC maybe later today.

Also, I've asked about Sean's possible antibodies and was told it might help with vaccine, so, to clarify...
1. What sort of help it might or might not be?
2. Can we instead invent some immunoglobulin (and, if so, at what price / difficulty)? We surely should be able to extract something from Richard once he recovers...
1) Examining you and rolling Diagnosis skill would act as a complementary roll for the invention roll. It would also count as "parts" equal to your HT times $100 times the margin of success.
2) Yes, that's effectively "fabricating parts" for inventions of a suppressant, a vaccine or an antidote via a Pharmacy skill roll. Maybe Richard could roll his HT as an effective complementary roll to it. First things first, though...
