Damage from a source with infect is damage in all respects. If the source with infect also has lifelink, damage dealt by that source also causes its controller to gain that much life. Damage from a source with infect can be prevented or redirected. Abilities that trigger on damage being dealt will trigger if a source with infect deals damage, if appropriate.
Infect’s effect applies to any damage, not just combat damage.
A player who has ten or more poison counters loses the game. This is a state-based action.
