50 Facts about the T-Virus ft. Biohazard Declassified

[@BiohazardDeclassified]

Thank you Kai for the opportunity to collab with you! Hope everyone enjoys the video.

[@burge117]

Great video guys!

[@robhiggins3287]

Agreed

[@koulor315]

I suggest a video where u and other resident evil based KZbinrs talk about the T virus and other viruses, it be fun lol

[@Ezio999Auditore]

I-is that another RE themed channel?! Aaaaaaaah help me Nemesis I’m mooooootating!!!!

[@TheWalt19]

We love you guys

[@Viral-Cell]

An interesting fact about Jill's immunity from a file in RE5: Jill's vaccine didn't destroy the T-Virus in her body, it put it into a dormant state for 8 years, this gave her body enough time to develop an immune system that can instantly destroy it. After the battle with Wesker at the Spencer estate, she was taken and put into stasis for research, that's when she was discovered to have the dormant virus which then reactivated but disappeared almost immediately thanks to her T-Virus antibodies.

[@whis.sensei]

I also wonder about the T-abyss virus she inoculated herself with. Since Revelations takes place before RE5, I wonder what became of that. Also it’s crazy we haven’t seen Jill since RE5 (not counting RE 3 remake)

[@MuhRidey]

I love how Outbreak is so important to the lore

[@StollenBunz]

Same!!!! We at least need cameos from the characters in the new games.

[@kazuhirokawamoto7213]

​@@StollenBunz A Remake Of outbreak would have been a much more better choice instead of whatever the hell Resistance and REverse was

[@TheVorshevsky]

To think that the fact Resident Evil T-Virus adheres to real world Biology and Virology rules is astounding

[@ceecee6521]

It's really a miracle we haven't fucked ourselves as a species by making a real world T-Virus as of yet, ain't it???

[@leiiiighA]

Totally, kinda makes it more scary.

[@hidum5779]

except for tyrant regenerating and growing limbs and all. that by no means is realistic

[@linkkenni]

More or less. An infection leading to outright DNA mutations that cause immediate changes is really from left field. Even radiation damage to cells takes longer than some RE mutations to manifest.

[@stinkybean5]

Kinda wonder if some of the team behind the various tellings of different parts of the RE story didn't do at least some light reading behind the subject?

[@MonosEx]

I still laugh at the "We can contain them so spread is limited" part of the interview with the Virologist

[@raicrush]

My sister is a scientist that works with viruses. I asked her if she would tell me if she/her people were working on a zombie virus. She told me she doesn’t have the funding to do that 😭😭😭

[@koulor315]

Hopefully your sister does not try to cure cancer with a virus lol

[@chrisnichols9014]

That's horrifying...Scientists are crazy, man...lmfao

[@Gojiro7]

Incase you needed more reasons to have trouble sleeping at night, that means now that Resident Evil and the Last of Us are both *world ending catastrophes that are disturbingly possible in real life, more so the latter because the Cordyceps *fungal spore already exists and works on insects and is very possible to mutate to affecting mammals someday .

[@Gojiro7]

@Jesse Forsblade okay that is a good point, still their two really big world ending type things from video games that are uncomfortably something that could happen, thats worth taking notice ^^;

[@bitterdeputy900]

Aim for the head

[@koulor315]

The cordyceps fungi is more likely to happen in real life than the T virus, cause it already exists but the T virus is a viral strain that allows mutations in living things, something that’s far too impossible

[@allsuper9268]

I actually think that Jill dose have a resistance at least because in the remake one of her files mentions her being bitten but not changing so it’s likely that when Nemesis infected her it was a stronger strain possibly connected to the parasite.

[@RavinBlackhart]

honestly Outbreak answered your part 11. Everyone's DNA handles the virus differently. I'm pretty sure there is other bits in the games other than Outbreak that confirm it as well. For example Chris & Barry seem nearly immune to the virus while Jill & Rebecca needed treatment after heavy infection. lol you even kinda answered yourself with part 6

[@corneliussnow8215]

Goddamn, I would have never guessed that a fictional Virus could have so much trivia behind it but, it was nice to see some more sweet sweet Outbreak love. Would be cool to see other videos on other viruses like G-Virus, Las Plagas, Uroboros etc but, I wonder if there would be enough for a good vid.

[@danieladams2544]

I agree. Something like show a virus and all the monsters created by it, then the next virus or organism, all the way down the list to the Megamycete. Though I think I'm asking for WAY too much all at once.

[@Omicron9999]

Only the G-Virus and maaaaaybe the T-Veronica virus are interesting enough for full videos IMO, simply because they have more lore behind them and are the most fleshed out. The G-Virus is also linked to Lisa Trevor and the development of the Nemesis parasite, so it has the most things to talk about.

[@iloveemeralds4622]

Jill was immune to normal forms but the Nemisis’s have a alternate strain used to infect those normally immune

[@Impartial_Sojourner]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Albert Wesker's "Prototype virus" in fact a modified T-virus? Edit: I also want to thank Kai for illuminating more people to Outbreak. I'd say it's criminally underrated.

I personally believe with the whole time it takes for the virus to take over thing, that not only would it come down to differences in the strain, but also the individual. Weight, height, age, sex, physical and mental fitness would all play a huge part in how long it'd take to effect.

The dogs you encounter in the RPD aren’t actually Cerberus. They are classified as zombie dogs, due to secondary infection of the T-Virus and coincidentally Police Chief, Brian Irons decided to make the Doberman Pinscher the specific breed of the RPD’s K-9 unit. Ironically this is also the same dog breed that the Arklay lab scientists decided to go with for the Cerberus project. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@johnnycaralta]

Lucky for us, COVID wasn't a super virus at all, so not being ready wasn't a problem.

[@annana6098]

I'm willing to deal with the wide variation of infection times as differences in individual's physical health, both overall and how tired or stressed they have been in the last 24 hours, the variety of viruses they've already built an immunity to, and also their genetic strengths and weaknesses. Maybe an iron deficiency means you've only got 30 minutes? It's easy enough to come up with something. It's flexible as long as it isn't instant or months later.

According to Caliban Cove the incubation and Zombification period of the T-virus strain in the Spencer Mansion can be up to a week, with first symptoms within a couple of days. As far as the Modified strain in Caliban cove from a little over an hour and a perfected strain at 10 minutes. Apparently the books are canon but in their specific universe? But it's still the T-virus so I guess that can serve as the time period?

[@philbateman1989]

I took a group of students on a virology course as one of the chaperones when I worked at a university (I didn't teach virology, or even medicine, but they needed lecturers from any school to volunteer just to keep tabs on the students, so I went for it). We went to a medical lab in London and were shown around the areas that were safe for visitors to be in and told about how they store virus samples as part of the tour. They do not screw around lol they don't show visitors live samples of the viruses, let alone let them handle them XD The closest we were allowed to get was being shown the entrance to the decontamination area you'd need to go through to even get into the wing of the building where they kept things like that. Even if you were an employee, there is no way you could just stroll in there, steal a sample of a virus and let it loose like in the movies, and even if you somehow did, the lockdown procedures are tight as hell. If there was even a *suspicion* that a virus sample had been removed from containment without strict authorization, the whole place would be locked down in seconds. That's even discounting the fact that none of the viruses they have samples of do much more than just kill the person infected slowly XD

I just wanted to add that in RE3 remake at the beginning there's a file saying something about jill's infection from the spencer mansion, implying that she either got bit or hurt by something (maybe airborne infection?) but she supposes that she's resistant, still there's the nightmare at the beginning of the game, she's worried; so she should've be infected but didn't but nemesis attack did infect her, so... I'm overthinking something stupid i know

[@barbarosh.turaman6283]

Well as far as i remember in the first game she never got bitten, only by the giant snake. So we can't know for sure. But let's not forget; substance does not kill, dosage does.If you eat about 10-20 apple seed, you'll die from cyanide poisoning. When she's been infected by Nemesis, maybe it's dosage was too much for a resistant/imune body could handle.

'The Tyrant has near human intellect and incredible muscle mass.' (player kites tyrant and knifes him to death)

[@Omicron9999]

Really cool video, but a couple of points: 1: You mention getting the good ending to Outbreak File 2, but synthesising the DAYLIGHT samples is done in the last scenario of File 1. File 2 just has you rescue Linda for the good ending. 2: The in-game time it takes for characters in Outbreak to die of the T-Virus should absolutely *not* be taken as any kind of canonical incubation period. The virus meter is, as you said, an in-game timer to prevent slow play, nothing more. Canonically the Outbreak crew are infected for multiple days it seems, if there is supposed to be any sort of continuity between the scenarios. Even if not, 45 minutes to an hour is no time at all, nobody would have survived. 3: You left out the original purpose of the T-Virus research, which was to create a virus with a 100% fatality rate which could be deployed as a biological weapon for use by the military. When they couldn't get over the 10% natural immunity, they started playing with its mutagenic effects and switched their goal to using it to develop bioweapons that could be mass produced and deployed to warzones to massacre enemy combatants. When THAT didn't go so smoothly due to the various undesirable side-effects like brain damage, they created several different strains hoping to mitigate these effects, which resulted in the Epsilon strain which you mentioned was the strain responsible for the zombies and was developed by William Birkin by splicing Ebola into the T-Virus. Other than that, good video. Lots of cool facts I'd forgot about myself, well done.

Anyone know where to find that file about Yoko and the T virus that he mentioned? I played that game a million times and never found such file.

[@JotakuJo]

If a zombie virus like the T-virus actually did exist, it would quickly be wiped out. Because of muscle and tissue degeneration in most zombies they would eventually lose mobility thus making it easier to contain a slow horde of zombies and they be classed as slow moving corpses. Lickers on the other hand are something else. The Chimaera's to me are the most disturbing as Umbrella most likely kidnapped women to impregnate them only for the mutant to likely rip them from the inside during birth.

[@AtomicEy]

4:36 fixed camera trigger my gag reflex

[@roccondil5]

I have a very simple theory that would allow for characters to get bitten in gameplay and still remain uninfected that would fit well with canon. Basically, the virus loses it's capability to spread shortly after initial infection, rendering zombies and other ts virus infected creatures incapable of transmitting the virus after a set period. This explains why jill needs to be infected via tentacle/stabby bit by the nemesis, causing a direct infection, and would also fit in with the virus being made as a weapon. You want your virus created creatures able to go in and sweep the target without the risk of the infection spreading outside at a later date. Zombie outbreaks also work best if there's an initial onset of the virus that spreads really fast but shortly loses it's infection capability. Non canonically it also does away with the need to explain why a character being bitten during gameplay doesnt count and other plot holes like rebecca being bitten.

[@jovenc4508]

I see characters getting bitten during gameplay as game elements separate from the story. Like how herbs and sprays can heal any wounds.

[@RexVergstrong]

Number 2 is kinda incorrect. Yoko is 18, it's impossible she would've donated her cells for the original T samples. The file just says she donated her cells for research on T.
