Pandemic: State of Emergency

Use 2 Event cards per player, adding the new Event cards to the others and shuffling them together. This differs from the base game (p. 2).

No. It blocks the next 2 attempts to place disease cubes or cause an outbreak there; each blocked attempt flips the marker to its “1” side, then removes it on the next attempt (p. 2).

Before drawing Infection cards, roll the Hinterlands die and resolve its result; then draw and resolve Infection cards normally. The Hinterlands spaces can also receive cubes from outbreaks in connected cities (p. 3).

Resolve the Emergency Event first. Emergency Events are not regular Event cards, and they do not count against players’ hand limits (p. 4).

No. Treat Disease cannot remove purple Superbug cubes; after the purple disease is cured, players use vaccine doses to remove all purple cubes from the city they are in (pp. 5–6).

At a research station, discard 5 City cards, at least 2 of which must be cities with a purple cube. Replace that station with a vaccine factory and a vaccine dose (p. 6).
