You contaminate a single arrow or crossbow bolt with an virulent contagion as you fire it. In addition to its normal damage, anyone struck by this arrow or bolt is affected as if by the contagion spell. If the arrow is not fired immediately, the spell ends with no effect.

Contagion in short hand: The target contracts one of the following diseases: blinding sickness, bubonic plague, cackle fever, filth fever, leprosy, mindfire, red ache, shakes, or slimy doom. The disease is contracted immediately (the onset period does not apply). Use the disease's listed frequency and save DC to determine further effects.
