Counters of any kind, including virus counters, are not sufficient to maintain a subsidiary data fort. When the last card in or on the fort is removed, the fort collapses. When that happens, the counters no longer exist. |

Trivia
"Pox" is a generic term for a viral disease. It is notable that up to the present day there has only been one successful extermination of a viral disease: smallpox. The smallpox virus now only exists in research laboratories, awaiting final destruction as decreed by the World Health Organisation. |

A card with the name of Pox also exists in the Magic: the Gathering game. |
