Considering how the original strain became widely traveled before it was even noticed, I don't doubt that the new strain is probably already in multiple countries. One wonders how useful shutting down flights from England is at this point. We're basically all one big petri dish.- I believe Obsidian's greatest creations were Pillars of Eternity 1 and Tyranny
