Water Transmission
Item from Plague Inc. by Ndemic Creations
The harbor vector — waterborne spread that lets the pathogen travel through drinking water, sewage, and shipping lanes to reach island nations no airplane can.
Also known as: Waterborne, Aquatic Transmission, Shipping Lane Spread
What They Know
- Essential for reaching seaport-only nations (Greenland, Madagascar) that air transmission cannot reach
- Water 1 provides basic waterborne spread; Water 2 improves aquatic survival and shipping lane transmission
- Especially effective in countries with poor water sanitation — contaminated drinking water becomes a transmission vector
- Shipping lanes on the world map show water-based transmission routes between coastal nations
- Combines with Air Transmission for complete global coverage — the two vectors together reach every country
