An epidemiologist named Eric Lofgren just happened to become an avid WoW player and was fascinated by the parallels to the way the outbreak played out in the world. He and his classic wow gold Tufts colleague, Nina Fefferman, co-authored a 2007 newspaper published in Lancet Infectious Diseases examining the possible consequences of the Corrupted Blood episode for perfecting existing epidemiological models, because they would have the ability to draw on hard data demonstrating how players actually responded during an outbreak.
For instance, some players tried to aid with healing spells, because their attempts endured continuous replenishment of these vulnerable to this spell, accidentally making things worse, rather than allowing the outbreak run its course.
There were the thrill seekers who moved to the regions out of curiosity, getting victims, which Fefferman has likened to journalists traveling. There were a couple of players that maliciously spread the disease on purpose--something that's been recorded in real world outbreaks--and also one participant took on the role of a Doomsday prophet, standing at the city square to narrate the carnage unfolding from the game.
Fefferman is at the best wow classic gold seller University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where she studies how decisions that are tiny may lead to major changes across a specified population. That work on the Corrupted Blood epidemic continues to inform her research.
