Timeline


 * week 11: kata, recently arrived from an exotic country, meets laila. she accidentally sneezes pre-handshaking with her, and passes the germs.
 * weeks 12 - 13: the party, where they meet isabella, who is already a carrier for the fungus that hosts the strain of the disease with amnesia
 * week 1: kata's symptoms present themselves, and we announce the blog, speaking of an epidemic that is presenting life-threatening symptoms, and thus open sign-ups, explaining the options people have without unveiling the illness presented
 * week 2: kata dies, with laila following a few short days after, and causing panic to ensue. that same week hogwarts is quarantined and declared a hot zone for spattergroit, causing mass hysteria and quidditch to be cancelled
 * week 3: the next wave of the disease occurs, with more and more students falling ill. Classes continue for those now infected yet.
 * week 4: more students begin to die, and the violent strain makes itself present, just in time for the week 5 wave (so it's 3 waves in total), since students are not allowed to go home for christmas that year
 * week 5: students begin to present symptoms, some of whom die in week 6. We can present extra symptoms to make it a mixture of 2 strains overall (perhaps bring in dragon pox, too?)
 * week 7 and week 8: a cure is presented and declared usable, thus saving the lives of the students still ill
 * week 9 and 10: the expansion comes to an end during week 10, at which point hogwarts is disinfected, the students who took the cure are screened again and cleared to go home
