Curing a disease is simply discarding 5 (or 4 for the Scientist) matching cards as an action. All this does is to get you closer to winning. It doesn't do anything to any cubes on the board (except for the Medic's special power), and doesn't change any rules about new cubes coming into play.
Ok this is confusing. I swear my rule says that once a cure is found, all players (not just the medic) can cure all virus in a single action (like the medic special ability). For the medic, he gets to cure them all as usual but without having to spend an action.
Can any on confirm this?
This is correct, and is clearly described on page 5 of the rulebook, in the description of the Treat Disease Special action.
So the medic gets to clear all the cubes in a city without spending an action, and the other players get to clear all cubes in a city using the Treat Disease action, once a cure is found for that specific disease.
