I would like to see disease info

I really like the way diseases are handled in 4th edition. In the game I'm running, I've inflicted countless diseases on my hapless PC's. When they make those endurance checks a hush falls over the room and everyone waits for the d20 to stop. I see disease as a potent weapon in a monster's arsenal... it certainly makes my players think twice before taking on something they know is diseased.

So my question is this:  How come disease effects aren't listed in Monster Builder?  Or compendium for that matter. It's a real pain to have to dig out the books, especially if it's one I don't use often (ex. open grave).

I have to second this notion.  Diseases are useful and fun up to the point that i have to shuffle through a stack of books to figure out what one does.
Vanador: OK. You ripped a gateway to Hell, killed half the town, and raised the dead as feral zombies. We're going to kill you. But it can go two ways. We want you to run as fast as you possibly can toward the south of the town to draw the Zombies to you, and right before they catch you, I'll put an arrow through your head to end it instantly. If you don't agree to do this, we'll tie you this building and let the Zombies rip you apart slowly.
Dimitry: God I love being Neutral.
