Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Vaxcards is a game of infectious disease and fun! A strategic battle style card game where players collect diseases to infect and try to eradicate each other's diseases. The game is played with a hit point system, aiming to lower your opponent's resistance to zero.
The fun, lovable characters are based off the childhood, adult and traveler vaccination program. Illustration and game mechanics are built around symptoms and statistics from real diseases. The game has three settings of complexity, for normal humans, younger humans and advanced game humans.
The collectable character cards have the potential to be integrated as a reward for vaccination against that specific disease for children nervous of needles. As you progress through the schedule, the more playable characters and game options unlock. The game can also be enjoyed by any science or tabletop game lover, with innovative concept, robust game mechanics and quirky fun quick game play. Decks come with a starter and 4 expansions.
