A possible method to get Madagascar
Alright, most people's complaints with this game is about getting Madagascar. I just played trying a new strategy and it worked. I did the following.
-When I started, I immediately sold my symptom that my infection had.
-I then used my remaining points to put into resistances, like cold and heat and those.
-Then I just pumped my ways of passing the infection.
-Once all those are maxed, or close to maxed, your virus spreads a LOT faster, and a lot broader. When I did that, I got Madagascar. The only country I missed was Argentina, but I was still pretty satisfied. I guess give it a try and see if it works for you.
