The CaBI19 pandemic was a large-scale outbreak of the clostroides abaddoni bacterial infection 2019 (CaBI19) disease. It was caused by the novel Clostroides abaddoni bacteria. While the first samples of the microorganism were identified in late 2019, it was not until February 2020 that cases of the disease linked to it began being reported across the Southern Furukuran Sea, as well as in Musgorocia and Afruika. The city-state of Kesslerstaadt became the epicentre of the pandemic, causing many countries to impose restrictions barring travel to and from Kesslerstaadt.
Like other members of the Clostridioides genus, C. abaddoni spreads from person to person by the fecal-oral route. Contact with surfaces contaminated with C. abbadoni proved enough to risk infection with the disease. Symptoms included severe dehydration and diarrohea. Highly cytotoxic, with an estimated 90% to 100% mortality rate for untreated cases, the pandemic rapidly killed hundreds of thousands of people, often within twenty-four hours of symptoms arising. Mortality rates for individuals with compromised immune systems or underlying medical conditions were noticeably higher. While most countries in the Southern Furukuran Sea successfully managed to contain the spread of the disease, the unique economic and social circumstances of Kesslerstaadt; notably its existence as an international centre for sex tourism and haven for LGBT individuals, resulted in it spreading unabated.
The pandemic severely damaged trade and slowed economic activity in the Southern Furukuran Sea and beyond. By late 2021, the pandemic had largely been contained, though periodic localised flare-ups persist throughout the region. Various treatments developed in response to CaBI19; and some adopted from experience treating C. difficile infection (CDI), have managed to bring mortality down between 60% to 75%. So far, vaccination against the disease is the only way to prevent severe infection.
The exact origins of C. abaddoni are unknown, though various theories exist. One of the most popular argues that it was an accidently released bioweapon.

| Date | Confirmed | Deaths | Recoveries | Notes |
| 27 Feburary 2020 | 104,838 | Unknown | Unknown | Kesslerstaadter authorities report the number of confirmed cases for the first time, as hospitals are quickly overwhelmed. |
| 3 March 2020 | 193,233 | Unknown | Unknown | Prime Minister Lumban Reitz makes a plea for international assistance. Attempts by authorities to implement public health restrictions fail due to widespread non-compliance. |
| 14 March 2020 | 324,174 | Unknown | Unknown | Carlosian President Cárlos Tobón orders the delivery of medical supplies to Kesslerstaadt. The Kesslerstaadter economy is in free-fall until eventually being bailed out by the Redshield Foundation. Widespread unrest spreads throughout the poorer, deindustrialised areas of the city as the disease takes its toll. |
| Late 2021 | 812,318 | 588,118 | 224,200 | By this stage, the pandemic had ended in Kesslerstaadt and daily deaths from CaBI19 had fallen to below double digits. The mortality rate up to this point was 72.4%. |
Carloso
The first case of CaBI19 in Carloso was confirmed on 14 February 2020. The infected individual had recently arrived back from a business trip to South Oceanica. He was admitted to Saint Michael's Hospital in Valderosa after collapsing at home. Initially in a serious condition, he recovered and was eventually discharged on 1 March.
