== Description ==
A ''disease'' can be caught by [[animal]]s being poorly treated and may pass to other animals or [[player]]s.

== Animals ==
A disease arises mainly from two factors: large amounts of animals standing together in small spaces (three or more on one [[tile]]) or by catching it from another animal or player that is diseased. A disease causes an animal to lose [[fat]] faster and eventually die if left untreated. Pregnant animals seem to have a higher chance of miscarriage when diseased (when giving birth).

Diseases can be prevented by grooming an animal regularly. You can tell when a creature needs grooming by [[examining]] it. Animals usually require grooming about every two real life days.

To slowly cure this status, make sure the animal is well-fed, put it in isolation, and use a [[grooming brush]] on it. Another option is to ask a [[Fo]] priest to cast [[Humid drizzle|humid drizzle]]. This will instantly heal the disease (note that client delay may sometimes delay reporting of a newly disease-free animal in-game when this approach is taken).

== Player ==
As a player, it is possible to catch a disease after contact with diseased animals. It is also possible to catch a disease from contact with many non-diseased animals or players. When the power of a disease is over 100, skill gain is impaired. It has been suggested that disease also lowers one's [[Combat rating | combat rating]].

You will be notified with the following line in the [[event window]] in orange text:

:''You scratch yourself. What did you catch now?''

The following actions will help you to get rid of a disease:

* Keep your [[food bar]] above 90%. Otherwise, it will continue to decrease by 5 power every 30 minutes. The effects can be seen by looking at [[spell effects]].
* Stand on a tile with enchanted grass.
* Have Humid Drizzle or Heal cast on you.

Once you lose the disease, you will be notified with the following line in the event window:

:''You feel a lot better now as your disease is gone.''

== Notes ==
* It is possible for disease to be cured relatively quickly (14 minutes was observed by Petrius)
