Virus bomb

The virus bomb was created and utilized by Dr. Nuvo Vindi to spread his modified Blue shadow virus back into the galaxy.

Characteristics
Round and easily portable, the virus bombs were gray spheres that held canisters of Vindi's Blue shadow virus. It is unknown whether they caused any damage besides release of the virus.

History
Vindi manufactured many of these bombs to release his air-potent Blue shadow virus back into the galaxy. When his plot was discovered, Anakin, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka led a raid on his lab. After Vindi attempted to escape, he remotely activated the bombs, intending on releasing the plague. Fortunately, Bomb squad troopers managed to deactivate all the bombs in time.

Later, Padmé and the Bomb squad discovered that one of the bombs was missing its canister of the virus. Vindi's assistant droid, having possession of the missing container, snuck back into the bomb room and placed it back into a bomb. Before the clone troopers, were able to stop it, the bomb blew up and the virus was released into the lab, infecting Ahsoka, Rex and the clone troopers, and later Padmé as well. Anakin and Obi-Wan managed to find a cure to the virus in time.
