Abstract: The basic contact process with parameter $mu$ altered so that infections of sites that have not been previously infected occur at rate proportional to $lambda$ instead is considered. Emergence of an infinite epidemic starting out from a single infected site is not possible for $mu$ less than the contact process' critical value, whereas it is possible for $mu$ greater than that value. In the former case the space and time infected regions are shown to decay exponentially; in the latter case and for $lambda$ greater than $mu$, the ratio of the endmost infected site's velocity to that of the contact process is shown to be at most $lambda/mu$.
