In game play and from what I gather in the books and other dockets of the Reaident Evil realm, I can't help but think that such viruses are a combination of the ebola type virus and a rabies style virus, with a sort of nurral parasitic morphing of parts of brain and nerve control.
Ebola type infection, so potential fluid transmitting, definately scratch or bite (so touch for sure). Also the rotting away part.
Rabies, mental destability, loss of mind and control over movement, etc.
Cancer type spread in body, hyper mutation of muscle tissue, the need to produce extra cells which would require an intake of lots of sustenance to markup for cell l generation.
-
It could be that the fluid transmission be lessened out of virus mutation whic would mean only puncture of a victim by a carrier would need to take place, but then again that would not be logical, it would be as infctious as the Ebola virus, so a simple touch might be enough. Or simply touching an infected surface, and it absorbing into skin.
The rabies part, once it infects and reached the central nervous system, the hunger aspect could repalce the paralization part, and cause am unaware person to constantly search for food, or have some intensified hunger demand to satisfy the increase in cell creation.
The viruse life or existence cycle may not be long, so mutation properties could have it designed to constantly and efficiently evolve to suit whatever environment it might be in and in a fast manner. The cellular growth in the mouth could produce dormant virus cells, so when the host bites other living things, it could trigger it to spread.
Since the virus may have a short life or existence cycle, perhaps a day or so, touch may not be a problem after. Being exposed for too long could cause them to die off.
(I have more ideas, just got to go into work)
