The next time you QT somewhere--anywhere--turn around and talk to the med droid. Scroll half way down and buy the serum. It literally takes less than 10 seconds.

Buy the serum. 2K credits (cheap as dirt) and it debuffs you and you can't get infected again for 5 hours (not sure of the time but something like that). Then go about your business and ignore the exploding characters around you.

I usually have the nerf ball or snow ball toy on my bar when on fleet and it is an interesting game to see if you can hit someone just as they explode.
Does it take long to find a med droid and buy a vaccine? No

Does it cost a prohibitive amount? No

Should I have to 'opt out' using the vaccine to avoid the stupid plauge? No

The event and possibility of being infected should be opt in or restricted to the event zone, not 'you must find and purchase a vaccine to opt out'.

That wont work due to there being a daily -and- achievements for infecting other players.

I bought several of the immunity relics when they became available. Not only are they great for leveling alts since they are legacy bound (3 different level tiers) but i generally dont even notice the events even happening on alts due to them.

Personally i always try to get it once so i can blow up on a fleet credit seller/spammer... That alone makes kablooey so very worth it...

Did he explain why he didn't just buy the vaccine which would have been quicker than posting this rant?

When this event comes around I as a player who despised this event for the simple reason that it was created simply to let players interfere others players playing the game. I would like to request the following

Let me join THORN as a player and all infected PC's become flagged and killable same faction opposite faction doesnt matter if they are infected they are flagged

Also put the Thorn NPC's back in the game like it was when the event was introduced originally. You know the ones that attack infected people

All the THORN in game messages talk about all infected people should be killed thrown out airlocks etc. So make it so.
Was before F2P

So much this. As for now, I don't participate in this event at all. I opt out with all my chars.

C'mon, it's fun. Got infected? Go to fleet, get to the VIP lift and divebomb from there to the croud below. It's one of the best parts of game!
I just dropped in
To see in what condition my condition was in

Referal with some free crap.

As always, the best part of this event is the complainers. Perhaps they should stick to single-player games.
