I see now why they created
a fifth spot for you.

You know the last time
that happened,

Dr Nottingham's family

both of you.

I know how difficult it was
for you to sign that budget.

These people are
not your friends, Max.

They're your employees.

Believe it or not, you did what
was best for this hospital.

Today I protected you,

Goodbye.

the day with good morning?

Yeah, but today is

Well, since this is our big,
emotional farewell--six feet.

Sorry.

I've alerted Veronica,
but she's still in Chicago,

so this is on us,
and here are the facts.

Nine patients died
this morning.

They were all colonized
by a bacterium infection,

Klebsiella Pneumoniae
Carbapenemase.

I'm sorry, but what is that?

A superbug that's resistant
to most of our antibiotics.

Ah.
Now the good news is

KPC isn't airborne
like a virus or COVID.

It's spread by direct contact
through an open wound

or ingestion,
but that's the only good news.

From there, the bacteria
quickly spreads to the lungs,

where our patient's died
of either bacterial pneumonia

or pulmonary embolism.

Where are they
all getting it from?

Well, all the infections came

from different departments.

I mean, it could be anywhere
in the hospital.

Ten more patients
just tested positive.

So what do we do now?

Well, we have
to call the NIH.

I mean, this could be
in other hospitals.

Hey!

I'll call the top people
at the CDC.

We'll get their infection
control team here,

we'll find a treatment
for the infected,

Dr. Sharpe can conduct
a hospital-wide search

All right.

Well, there's no treatment
for this,

we might be able to stop
the infection in its tracks.

It's all we got.

♪

Simon,
tell me you got good news.

I put the CDC's strongest
antibiotics in each dish--

Cipro, Colistin, Vancomycin.

Bacteria should not be able
to survive in this environment.

And?

New Amsterdam's KPC strain

not only survived,
it flourished.

Nothing worked?

This is what antibiotic
resistance looks like.

New Amsterdam is
the third hospital this year

to get an infection like this.

And what happened to patients
at the other hospitals?

They died.

.

There must be a common link,

but all the infected
came from different floors.

They were admitted
to different departments,

and given various treatments.

From arrival
to first symptoms,

looks like roughly a 48-hour
incubation period

for the bacteria.
Okay.

So...

let's go back
to hour one for every patient.

Where did they enter?

All but three went in
through the ED.

Okay, then what?

Six went through radiology
for imaging.

And five went to cardio.

Okay, then those
are our common links.

We need to put the ED
on full diversion

and lockdown cardiology
and radiology.

We have to test
every square inch.

Don't we need the medical
director to authorize that?

Well, when she returns, you
can tell her to give me a ring.

Okay, guys, let's go.

So you're telling me
the strongest antibacterial

the CDC has won't work?

It doesn't even make a dent.

Well, then we need to think
of something else, and fast.

Our supplies are pushed
to the brink.

I mean, the ward you just put
me in charge of is almost full.

Okay, what about something
other than antibiotics,

like phage therapy.

I've already tried it.

Nothing in the phage trials
works on this train.

Immunotherapeutics,
like pegfilgrastim?

Or heavy doses of probiotics
for microbiota modulation?

They're good as
preventative measures,

but it's too late
to help those already infected.

What about CRISPR?

We could alter the Cas9 enzyme

and turn the KPC gene function
against itself.

Possibly.

It's experimental and time
consuming, but it could work.

Let's do it.

Can you believe this, Thora?

You believe what this kid
puts us through?

Don't yell at him.
I'm not going to yell at him.

He's gonna know I'm over this.
Okay, okay.
