Abominable Curse
"This is characterised by a peculiar walk, reminiscent of patients suffering from Premature Mummification. The disease spreads through a powerful (and ancient) sneeze".

Any patient or staff member walking with both arms held horizontal like a mummy is infected with this disease. This includes any patient already with Premature Mummification, making it difficult to fulfil the challenge with such patients being present in the hospital.

Jogger's Ripple
"The Jogger's Ripple Effect is characterised by involuntary bouts of stretching, cardiovascular exercise and general health-conscious-ness. The disease spreads through painful (and athletic) sneezing".

Patients or staff moving faster with brisk arm movements are those affected by the disease. Unfortunately, this is similar to that for normal fast movement and for workers with high happiness, making it difficult to differentiate the unafflicted from those that are.
