Pandemic
If the Quarantine Specialist prevents an outbreak or a cube placement, does the quarantine marker flip or the outbreak marker advance?
The designer answered this in 2016 and 2024, and the rulebook's Fine Points agree.

No to both. When the Quarantine Specialist prevents the placement, no cube is added, the outbreak marker doesn't advance, and the city's quarantine marker isn't flipped or removed. The Specialist protects Hinterlands spaces and the linked cities in both directions.
