Cybonic Plague Cure
There's something I've been wondering... What could the cure for Cybonic Plague possibly be made of? It doesn't make any sense for super-rare ingredients to be used if the virus was so contagious. Especially during a war. Megatron wouldn't want his own troops to fall to it if he wanted an advantage over the Autobots. And like Jack Darby said, it wouldn't make any sense for Megatron to have a virus with no cure in case he was accidentally infected himself. Also, Ratchet never complains about being low on any ingredients needed to create the cure. Granted, it could be because he was desperate to save Optimus, no matter what the cost. But still. To me, that implies that at least some components of the formula aren't too hard to come by. What could some of the ingredients for the Cybonic Plague cure be? I've come up with a few possible options and the sci-fi logic behind those choices, taking some inspiration from human biology and medicine. But I'd love to hear others' ideas on this as well! Feel free to share your thoughts and ideas! I need the help! This is what I have so far and it's subject to change. Lemme know what you think!
Copper- Boosts the immune system, inhibits viral replication, and helps destroy the Cybonic Plague virus. (What do Cybertronians call their immune system anyway? Self-repair nanites? Something else?)
Zinc- Works in tandem with copper.
Titanium- Boosts Cybertronian immune system and helps combat and reverse the corrosive rust damage caused by Cybonic Plague.
Molybdenum- Helps the immune/self-repair system repair and heal internal systems and external plating while simultaneously fighting and reversing the rusting effects of the virus.
Uranium- Helps destroy the virus. Works in tandem with copper and zinc.
