This reminds me of the book "Snow Crash". If you haven't read it yet, I would highly suggest you do. It was a very good read that talked about so called Metavirus' and how it fit in with the digital world. It's a fictional book granted but some of the topics it discusses can be employed to situations like these.
It's good that games can be actually used to solve real life problems. Great constructive use of a medium that most people consider "wasteful" and "useless".

Stem cell usage is one thing.
Vaccination is another.
