We all know by now that Carver and Bethany may die from the taint of the Darkspawns. But there is one thing that I don't get. Why aren't Hawke, Varric and his other companions affected the plague if they aren't Grey Wardens? I'm pretty sure that with all the blood of the darkspawns that splashed on them that they would've contracted the plague by now. But, nope... Plothole or something else? You decide...

Because being exposed to the corruption is no guarantee you'll get the taint... just like being exposed to someone with the flu is no guarantee you'll contact it yourself. This is the same as in Origins-- most of your party weren't Grey Wardens there, either, and yet none of them managed to get sick.

Convenient? Sure-- but there's a big different between something that's convenient for the plot and a "plot hole". People evidently like using that phrase without actually understanding what it means, like "cliche" or "cliffhanger".
