Pandemic
Does the First Responder move before or after the outbreaks from an Epidemic, and what about New Assignment?

After: resolving the epidemic city's outbreaks and chain reactions is part of the Epidemic, and she moves only once that's done. The epidemic city is infected first, and she acts before Infections. If New Assignment makes a player First Responder right after an Epidemic, she can still move provided no Infection card has been flipped for Infect Cities. The Virulent Strain is determined before she acts.
