I'd like to humbly propose this chance be removed from at least codedly married couples. Thematically, one of the reasons the Order pushes marriage is that "relations" within marriage are the only appropriate "relations" that don't lead to Taint. And the Magebane Chew helpfile makes clear that the Pox thematically is seen on the same level or at least related to the same level of Taint as being a mage. And I think a big portion of Order theme is sort of taken away if codedly the very thing they argue about is so clearly false.
Also, as an aside, given the level of seriousness about the end run of Pox, with the above changed, might I also humbly suggest a consideration in creating a buffer against it in the form of a potion like Strumpet's Solace? Whoresons Ward maybe?
For those non-married folks up to ... nonsense. Because reasonably, it seems like people should try and prevent it rather than rely on Magebane to fix it because ... that can't be made with any regularity because mage ashes are an ingredient. Also, it seems like that would also help theme as like Mugwort if the potion has a clear purpose for naughty things the embarrassment of asking a Physician for it, having to go to Southside for it, or having to bounty board for it would add to the RP about the choice.
