Cholera Dangers[ | ]

  1. It is important to mention that spawned Plastic Bottles have a 50/50 chance to infect a player with Cholera. It is always recommended to use Chlorine Tablets to purify before first consumption of the spawned liquid OR empty the bottle out and refill entirely from a Water Pump to be safe.
  2. Consuming from a bottle shared between a Cholera infected player and an uninfected player can spread the infection. To be safe: clean the contents with Chlorine Tablets before drinking.
