You see the trick to defeating the Plague is that you kill one member of your own team, then Plague refreshes the death spell before the countdown reaches zero and bumps it back up to ten! But that might not work in real life, only in video games, so we should probably just let Willie sit at home until he tests negative.

I must have spent a whole week playing two or three hours a day trying to figure out how to beat that boss.
