What does a Superbug card do when the city's colour is eradicated?

The designer answered this in 2016 and 2020, and the rulebook agrees.

With no purple cube there, nothing is added; the infection is done normally, which adds no cube of the eradicated colour. With purple cubes there, you add a purple cube (or outbreak at 3), and no cube of the eradicated colour. Superbug cards are removed from the game when drawn once purple is eradicated.
