Illness chance, in general, is increased by all forms of Fatigue but does not directly impact Action Points. See disease durations for more information. Untreated Illness generally persists for 2–7 days (preferably while remaining well fed, hydrated and rested, eating low-risk food and drink, otherwise further diseases are likely). The risk of contracting specific illnesses can be reduced by taking the appropriate herbal remedy prior to the disease check.
In Fallout 4, the Sole Survivor can become ill in Survival mode.Īll illness can be cured with antibiotics, resting for several days, or by paying for the Cure Health service from any doctor.
