Hazmat Suits and Gasmasks/face coverings protect against sickness

[Madman_Andre]

What the title says. basically the idea is that certain items and face coverings could provide varying degrees of protection against the sickness caused by dead bodies/zeds.

 

An idea I had for balance would be that bandannas would provide a quarter resistance, surgical masks would be half, gas masks would be three quarters while the rare Hazmat suit would provide full protection from the effects of decaying bodies. For added balance you could factor in condition as well, A hazmat Suit at 75% durability would only give the same resistance as a gas mask, for example. I think it would give another reason to use those items, as it would give them added utility as well as a reason to take care of those pieces of equipment.

 

Your thoughts?
