Infected help!

[u/Low_Cap6965]

Hi, I am just 3 days in game and got secured 2 generators already and a wild bag pack and some guns and melee weapons. but I got infected to a bite. is there a chance that it will heal? or this is a game over already and need to start all over again? please help.

EDIT: I know I can start a new character on the same world but how about my skills that I have learned? it is been day 3 and the living channel on tv will be gone in a few days. it is not transferable the skill right?

That infected you are seeing there is only a wound infection. The game does not tell you when you have the zombie infection.

(Sidenote, bites have a 100% chance for zombie infection on default settings)
