      After several failed hotfixes, Blizzard ended the pandemic by performing a hard reset, and a later patch prevented companions from contracting Corrupted Blood entirely.

      Note to the future: next pandemic, try a hard reset.

      Seriously though, it’s wild they couldn’t hotfix it.

        It’s wild that they couldn’t change the spread property of the debuff to be deactivated if you weren’t in the boss chamber. That should not be a hard fix…
