Can someone please explain the Vocal Cord parasite thing in this game? I listened to the tapes but I don't understand how talking creates parasite infections.

Vibrations in certain frequencies activate the parasites' reproductive cycle, which is fatal to the host
Skullface bred the parasites selectively (through some bullshit unexplained methodology) to activate only one frequencies unique to the speech patterns of particular languages
You were already infected with the virus whether you talk or not, but it's stimlated by certain specific vibrations generated from each seperate language. How this works when you stuff a speaker in someone's lung, idk.
Anyway so when Quiet starts speaking in English she's doomed herself because she had been infected by one of the only strains of the virus that is stimulated by English.

So were the parasites just a Plan B for Skull Face if the PF Nuke business didn't work? Or was the nuke stuff just a cover for the parasites, which were his true motive?

His goal was to destroy the English language completely as a revenge against the people he saw as responsible for erasing his personal identity, and to make it impossible for Major Zero to unite the world under his own interpretation of 'the boss's will' via computers and AI technology developed in English.

They were part of the plan, he'd use the parasites to distract the international community and prevent them from being able to organise and mount a response.

No, his goal was to give nukes to the third world to undermine the world superpowers (and cypher), he says himself that the parasites aren't effective as an ethnic cleanser.
Honestly, the Nuke thing feels super unnecessary.
The language based bioweapon was strong enough a threat to carry a whole game.
