Description
Inspired by the "Minecraft, but I get a new disease every 5 minutes" challenge. Every few minutes, every player catches a random disease, and they never go away. They stack until your game is a mess of fog, hiccups, fake zombies and sudden naps.
The diseases are made to be weird and inconvenient, not deadly. They mess with how you play rather than just draining your health. Dying doesn't cure them, and neither does milk.

How to play
- When you join, chat tells you to run
/diseases startto begin. /diseases listshows your diseases, and/diseases statusshows when the next one comes.- In multiplayer, everyone catches their own random disease.
Operator commands
/diseases settings: set the time between diseases (1–60 min) and blacklist any diseases you don't want./diseases give <disease> [player]: hand out a specific disease./diseases next: everyone catches one right now./diseases stop: cures everyone and ends the challenge.
Good to know
- No experimental toggles needed.
- It turns off the
sendCommandFeedbackgamerule so turning effects don't flood chat.
Requirements: Minecraft Bedrock 1.26.60 or newer.
