IMHO, patient 0 should not get all the deaths accounted to them, but only the deaths that happen within the local community.

Anyone who introduces the disease in a new community gets all the deaths for that community.

What if they were invited in? But why should patient 0 be blamed for a disease she didn't consciously make anyways? Seems to me like we need more information to make sure she actually made the disease. Maybe she's a future victim and she dies when the counter reaches her number.

But you know what, nobody ever stops to think about why that dude can see numbers nobody else can.
