About BioLabs Outbreak Game
The blue drops take up room that the red cells would otherwise have to move in. That's the idea behind the game. You're gradually making the field smaller for the outbreak, with only the antidote shown in the syringe to work with. The first level begins with two cells. They won't wait for you to decide where the next drop should go.
I'd start by watching one cell cross the field before placing anything near it. You need some idea of how long the open space will stay open. It is tempting to hold on for a bigger drop, especially when you've found a clear patch. But a big one takes time, and you can't ignore the second cell while the drop is growing.
How to Play BioLabs Outbreak Game
Click Play on the instructions screen. Put the mouse over a clear part of the grid and hold the left button. You'll see the antidote drop grow there. Release when you have enough room covered, before a red cell reaches it. Repeat to confine the outbreak. The syringe on the right shows your supply; Restart Level is just above it if you want to begin that level again.

Tips for a better round
- Try to leave a useful shape of empty space, rather than scattering drops wherever there happens to be a gap. Check both cells before holding the button. If either is heading your way, let go earlier.
