Description
This game simulates a malaria epidemic and your battle against it, in one or more five-year periods. You have the several options, including * isolating those ill in quarantine hospitals; * provide medicine for those ill, and preventive drugs to the healthy; and * fighting mosquitos using various chemicals (DDT, Malathion, Propoxur) in various intensities.
Each of these has a price; the game allows you to play with or without budget. You have to decide which of these methods to use in which of the next five years.
The game then simulates the effectiveness of your measures and displays the number of deaths and sick people for each year, and optionally gives you an evaluation of the effectiveness of these measures. You then can go on for the next five years.
