HEY.

Yeah, Jon Neal here.

You just had sex with me
in a hotel

and left
without saying good-bye.

YEAH. ENDED UP
BEING DELAYED, SO...

SORRY, I WAS PANICKING.

Well, if I don't
get to see you again,

I just wanted to say
it was nice to see you again.

YEAH, IT WAS NICE
TO SEE YOU, TOO.

Um, and listen, use that
other e-mail I gave you,

'cause that's
the only secure one, okay?

OKAY.

You all right?

YEAH. I'M JUST...

I'M JUST JET-LAGGED.
I'M TIRED.

Well, you should go home
and get some rest.

Hong Kong's a long way.

OH, WAIT.

Woman on P.A.:
TO MINNEAPOLIS...

Is that you?

YEP, THAT'S ME.
THEY'RE CALLING MY FLIGHT.

All right. Well, look,
I'm really glad you called.

THANKS.

BYE.

Bye.

THANKS.

GOOD MORNING, ROGER.

Roger: HEY.

SO YOU REALLY KICKED ASS
IN THAT FOOTBALL POOL.

YEAH, YOU NEED TO GIVE UP
ON YOUR LIONS, DOC.

START PICKING WITH YOUR HEAD
AND NOT YOUR HEART.

YEAH,
THANK YOU FOR THE TIP.

HEY, HEY, HEY, DOC, UH,
I KNOW YOU'RE BUSY, UH...

YOU GOT A SECOND?

SURE.

I GOT A MEDICAL QUESTION.

MM-HMM.

UH, YOU KNOW, MY KID'S BEEN,
UH, HAVING PROBLEMS AT SCHOOL.

UH, ATTENTION DEFICIT
THING.

ADHD?

YEAH.

HE BEEN DIAGNOSED YET?

THAT'S THE THING.
THEY WANT HIM TO SEE SOMEONE.

I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD
TAKE A LOOK AT HIM.

I'M NOT REALLY
THAT KIND OF DOCTOR, ROGER.

OH, YEAH, I DIDN'T KNOW.
I JUST THOUGHT MAYBE...

MAYBE I CAN REFER SOMEONE,
THOUGH.

YEAH.

YEAH. IT'S TREATABLE.

OKAY.

WE'LL FIND SOMEONE,
HAVE THEM TAKE A LOOK AT HIM,

SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM.

OKAY.

ALL RIGHT.

YEP. THANKS, DOC.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

Lorraine: ISN'T ANYBODY HELPING?
IS HE OKAY?

Alan: READ THE POSTS.

SOMETIMES IT'S STAGED.
AN ART PROJECT.

SOME SAY THE AUTHORITIES
WOULDN'T DO AN AUTOPSY.

COVERED IT UP.

COVERED WHAT UP?

WE DON'T KNOW.

MAYBE MINAMATA DISEASE.

YOU KNOW,
FROM MERCURY IN THE FISH.

THERE HAVE BEEN OUTBREAKS
IN THE PAST.

FISHING INDUSTRY SUPPRESSES IT.
"INDUSTRIAL DISEASE."

YEAH, BUT IT'S JUST
ONE MAN. WE DON'T EVEN
KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

JUST ONE MAN ON VIDEO.

NOT EVERYONE HAS THE FORESIGHT
TO DIE IN FRONT OF A CAMERA.

THE ONES WE DON'T SEE
WORRY ME.

FISH IS SHIPPED
ALL OVER THE WORLD FROM THERE.

HOW MANY PEOPLE READ YOUR PAPER
OVER A PLATE OF SUSHI EVERY DAY?

ALAN, WE HAVE ALMOST
NO FREELANCE BUDGET ANYMORE,

AND AFTER H1 ENDED UP...

YOU WAIT.

A FEW DAYS, THIS WILL BE
TWEETED AND YouTubed

ALL OVER THE PLANET.

WE DON'T WANT TO BE THE PAPER
THAT CRIES WOLF.

I'LL SHOW IT TO HOBART.
HE DOES OUR HEALTH STUFF.

ARE YOU'RE GOING TO GIVE HIM
MY STORY?

YOU'RE GOING TO GIVE HIM
MY STORY, AREN'T YOU, LORRAINE?

NO, ALAN,
I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU.

IT'S JUST ONE MAN
ON A BUS.

I TAPED THIS MEETING.

WE NEED MORE INFORMATION
THAN THAT.

THIS STORY RUNS
IN THE CHRONICLE,
I WILL SUE YOUR ASS!

OKAY. BYE, ALAN.
DON'T CALL ME ANYMORE.

PRINT MEDIA IS DYING,
LORRAINE.

IT'S DYING!

I'LL SAVE YOU A SEAT
ON THE BUS.

HI. I'M, UH,
I'M MITCH EMHOFF.

I'M CLARK'S STEPDAD.
CLARK MORROW.

Secretary: ALL RIGHT. I'LL LET
HIM KNOW THAT YOU'RE HERE.

OKAY.

HE SAID HE WAS FEELING VERY WARM
IN MRS. TATUM'S CLASS.

I TOOK HIS TEMPERATURE AGAIN
SINCE I CALLED.

IT WAS JUST A TOUCH
OVER A HUNDRED.

OKAY, WELL, FIRST HIS MOM
AND NOW THE MIGHTY CLARK.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO GET
SOME SOUP FOR YOU AND MOM.

Nurse: HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER,
CLARK, OKAY?

OKAY. THANK YOU.

Mitch: THAT-A-BOY.

WE'RE GONNA BEAT THIS THING DOWN
BY TURKEY DAY.

Mitch:
JORY'S GOING STRAIGHT FROM THE
BAND TRIP TO HER MOM'S PLACE.

AND MY JOB INTERVIEW
GOT PUSHED TO NEXT WEEK.

I'M NOT REALLY SURE
WHAT THAT MEANS.

HOPEFULLY NOTHING.

HEY.

MY ARM.

WAIT, COME HERE, SIT DOWN,
SIT DOWN, SIT DOWN.

WATCH YOUR FEET.
COME ON.

COME ON.
COME ON, HONEY.

OKAY, WHAT HAPPENED? DID YOU
TAKE TOO MUCH OF THAT FLU SHIT?

HEY, HONEY! BETH, BETH!
HEY. HEY, HEY, HONEY, HONEY.

BETH! JESUS! JESUS.

SWEETHEART.
SWEETHEART.

HEY. BETH!

Clark: MOM?

NO, NO, NO.
UH, UH, STAY THERE, CLARK.

DON'T... JUST GO...
GO UP TO YOUR ROOM, HONEY.

UH, HONEY, HONEY.

Mitch: YES... BETH. BETH.

Dr. Arrington:
BETH, CAN YOU HEAR ME?

MY NAME IS DR. ARRINGTON.
YOU'RE IN THE HOSPITAL.

YOU HAD A SEIZURE THIS
MORNING, BETH. HAVE YOU HAD
SOMETHING LIKE THAT BEFORE?

Nurse: SHE HAVE
A HISTORY OF SEIZURES?

NO, NO, NO, NO.

ALLERGIES,
OTHER MEDICAL PROBLEMS?

UH, I THINK SHE'S ALLERGIC
TO PENICILLIN.

DID SHE FALL RECENTLY?
HIT HER HEAD IN THE SHOWER?

NO, NO, NO, SHE CAME BACK
FROM A TRIP, AND SHE...

WHAT ABOUT DRUGS?
MDMA? ECSTASY?

NO, WE DON'T DO THAT.

OKAY, LET'S GET SOME HELP
IN HERE!

BETH? BETH!

Nurse:
SIR, YOU HAVE TO GO.

YOU HAVE TO GO.

LET'S GET A LINE IN HER!

AND GIVE ME 2 MILLIGRAMS
OF ATIVAN, PLEASE.

SO, UM,
DESPITE ALL OUR EFFORTS,

SHE FAILED TO RESPOND.

OKAY.

AND HER HEART STOPPED,
AND UNFORTUNATELY, SHE DID DIE.

RIGHT.

I'M SORRY,
MR. EMHOFF.

I KNOW
THIS IS HARD TO ACCEPT.

OKAY. I MEAN,
SO CAN I GO TALK TO HER?

MR. EMHOFF, I'M SORRY.
YOUR WIFE IS DEAD.

I MEAN, I JUST,
I JUST SAW HER.

WE WERE JUST AT HOME.

IS THERE SOMEBODY
THAT WE CAN CALL?

SOMEONE WHO YOU THINK
SHOULD BE HERE WITH YOU?

I MEAN, WE HAD DINNER,
WE HAD PIZZA,

SHE SAID
SHE WAS JET-LAGGED.

YOU MENTIONED THAT SHE WAS AWAY.
HONG KONG?

WE CHECKED
THE LATEST BULLETINS.

THE ONLY THINGS THERE
WERE MEASLES AND H1N1.

AND THIS WAS NOT THAT.

THEN WHAT WAS IT?

WE DON'T ALWAYS KNOW.

I MEAN, SOME PEOPLE
GET A DISEASE AND LIVE,

SOME GET SICKER AND DIE.

NOW, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
NOTIFY THE MEDICAL EXAMINER,

AND THEY MAY REQUEST
AN AUTOPSY.

OR, IF YOU WISH,
WE CAN ORDER ONE.

BUT I CAN'T GUARANTEE

IT'S GOING TO TELL YOU
ANY MORE THAN I CAN.

I MEAN, MY BEST GUESS

IS THAT THIS WAS EITHER
MENINGITIS OR ENCEPHALITIS,

AND WITH ENCEPHALITIS
WE'RE IN THE DARK
A LOT OF THE TIME.

IF IT WAS SUMMER,
I MIGHT SAY, UH, A BUG BITE,

YOU KNOW, WEST NILE.

UH, HERPES CAN CAUSE
ENCEPHALITIS.

SHE DIDN'T HAVE HERPES!

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!
WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?!

WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?!

OKAY. OKAY.

MR. EMHOFF,
THERE ARE GRIEF COUNSELORS

WHO ARE VERY HELPFUL
WITH THIS SORT OF PASSING.

OKAY? YOU MIGHT FIND
SOME RESOLUTION THERE.

NOW, I AM SORRY.

HELLO?

HANG UP THE PHONE
AND CALL 911 RIGHT NOW.

RIGHT NOW! 911.

HE SAID HE HAD A HEADACHE,
SO I PUT HIM TO BED.

I DON'T THINK
HE'S BREATHING.

CLARK, CLARK.

OH, MY GOD,
IS HE DEAD?

Damian: WHAT WE ARE HEARING
FROM BEIJING

IS THAT THE OUTBREAK
IS CONTAINED

TO THE CHRYSANTHEMUM COMPLEX
IN HONG KONG.

TWO DEATHS
AND TEN SUSPECTED CASES.

Man: HOW ARE WE DEFINING
CONTAINED?

THEY'RE USING THE SAME PROTOCOLS
ESTABLISHED FOR SARS.

THEY'RE QUARANTINING THE COMPLEX
AND SCREENING FOR SYMPTOMS.

Leonora:
KOWLOON IS THE MOST DENSELY
POPULATED AREA IN THE WORLD.

AND HONG KONG IS A HARBOR.

IT'S GOING TO SPREAD.

HONG KONG IS SENDING US
BLOOD SAMPLES.

WE'RE ALSO LOOKING AT SAMPLES
FROM LONDON.

TWO CLUSTERS... ONE AT A HOTEL,
THE OTHER AT A HEALTH CLUB.

FIVE DEAD, ENCEPHALITIS.

AND THERE'S THE MAN
ON THE BUS IN TOKYO.

THREE DEAD
IN THAT CLUSTER.

ANY OF THEM TRAVEL
TO CHINA OR LONDON?

WE'RE CHECKING.

Paramedic: MR. NEAL,
I WANT YOU TO STAY WITH ME HERE.

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

HAVE YOU HAD SEIZURES BEFORE?
MR. NEAL?

I WANT YOU TO OPEN YOUR EYES
IF YOU CAN, MR. NEAL.

HE'S BREATHING, RIGHT?

I COULDN'T WAKE HIM.
I GOT HOME, I COULDN'T WAKE HIM!

WE BOTH WOKE UP SICK
THIS MORNING.

WATCH YOUR HAND.

WELL, THE SULCI
ARE OBLITERATED.

LET'S LOOK AT THE BASE.

OH, MY GOD.

YOU WANT ME TO, UM,
TAKE A SAMPLE, OR...

I WANT YOU TO MOVE AWAY
FROM THE TABLE.

SHOULD I CALL SOMEONE?

CALL EVERYONE.

Ellis: WELL, THESE THINGS HAPPEN
UP THERE FROM TIME TO TIME.

MENINGITIS IN A COLLEGE DORM
AFTER A SWIM MEET...

OR WEST NILE IN SOME SUMMER CAMP
NEAR A LAKE.

YEAH, I WAS READING
THAT LAST SUMMER,

THEY HAD AN OUTBREAK
OF ENTEROVIRUS ENCEPHALITIS.

103 CASES.
MAINLY CHILDREN.

WELL, IT'S PROBABLY TOO COLD
UP THERE FOR THAT RIGHT NOW.

AS OF LAST NIGHT, THERE WERE
5 DEATHS AND 32 CASES.

THERE'S A CLUSTER
IN AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

OKAY, THAT'S THE KIND
OF THING YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO BE PREPARED FOR.

IT'S GONNA BE
ALL OVER THE NEWS BIG TIME.

WHAT'S YOUR SINGLE OVERRIDING
COMMUNICATIONS OBJECTIVE?

WE'RE ISOLATING THE SICK

AND QUARANTINING THOSE
WHO WE BELIEVE WERE EXPOSED.

OKAY, GOOD.

AS OF THIS MOMENT, YOU AND I
ARE ATTACHED AT THE CELL PHONE.

IF YOU NEED RESOURCES,
CALL ME.

IF YOU GET INTO
A POLITICAL DOGFIGHT, CALL ME.

IF YOU FIND YOURSELF
WIDE AWAKE,

STARING AT THE WALLS
AT 3 A.M.

WONDERING WHY YOU TOOK THE JOB,
CALL ME.

I SURE HOPE YOU PACKED
SOMETHING WARMER THAN THAT.

WE'RE LOOKING AT AROUND ZERO,
WITH THE WIND CHILL.

I DON'T WANT YOU
TO CATCH COLD.

SO, DO YOU WANT TO GO TO
THE HOTEL FIRST? GET SITUATED?

I PREFER TO GET STARTED,
IF THAT'S POSSIBLE.

OKAY.

HOW FAR IS THE OFFICE?

ABOUT A HALF HOUR
FROM HERE.

Doctor:
YOUR DAD'S IN ISOLATION.

YOU CAN GO UP TO THE WINDOW,
YOU CAN PICK UP THE PHONE
AND YOU CAN TALK TO HIM.

HEY.

DAD.

ARE YOU SICK?

NO. NO, NO, NO. NO.

UH, THIS IS ALL JUST,
YOU KNOW, A PRECAUTION,

YOU KNOW, JUST MAKING SURE.

BUT YOU WERE WITH THEM.
YOU COULD STILL GET IT.

NO, I WON'T.

UM, THEY SAID THIS HAPPENS
REALLY, REALLY FAST.

AND, UH, AND, AND I'M FINE.
THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH ME.

THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH ME.
AND WE'RE OKAY.

WE'RE OKAY.

AND CLARK?

YEAH, YOU KNOW, I, UM...

I WASN'T, I WASN'T THERE,

I MEAN, I WENT IN THE AMBULANCE
WITH, UH, WITH BETH.

AND, UH,
I JUST DIDN'T, I...

I LEFT HIM
WITH, UH, CARRIE ANNE.

I SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE.

I COULD HAVE HELPED.

NO, NO, NO, HONEY. NO.

IT'S GOOD THAT YOU WEREN'T
THERE, HONEY. I'M HAPPY.

IF SOMETHING HAD HAPPENED
TO YOU...

I MEAN, I...

HONEY.
YOU'RE HERE NOW, YOU KNOW.

I'M HAPPY ABOUT THAT.

I'M HAPPY ABOUT THAT.

WHEN ARE YOU COMING HOME?

SOON. VERY SOON.
THEY, YOU KNOW...

WHY DON'T YOU GO,
UH, UH, TO YOUR MOM'S?

NO!

JUST STAY IN WISCONSIN.

NO. SHE DOESN'T NEED ME.
SHE'S GOT DAN.

I LIVE HERE.

YOU DON'T HAVE ANYBODY.
I'M NOT LEAVING YOU.

Man: WE HAVE 47 CASES
AND 8 DEATHS

AS OF 5 THIS AFTERNOON.

IT'S A WEEKEND.
THESE NUMBERS MIGHT BE LOW.

PEOPLE ARE STAYING HOME
FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS,
SEE IF THEY GET ANY BETTER.

Erin: SO AT THIS POINT,
I THINK WE HAVE TO BELIEVE
THIS IS RESPIRATORY.

MAYBE FOMITES, TOO.

WHAT'S THAT?
FOMITES?

UH, IT REFERS TO
TRANSMISSION FROM SURFACES.

THE AVERAGE PERSON TOUCHES THEIR
FACE 2,000 OR 3,000 TIMES A DAY.

2,000 OR 3,000 TIMES
A DAY?

THREE TO FIVE TIMES
EVERY WAKING MINUTE.

IN BETWEEN, WE'RE TOUCHING
DOORKNOBS, WATER FOUNTAINS,

ELEVATOR BUTTONS
AND EACH OTHER.

THOSE THINGS BECOME FOMITES.

IS THIS SOMETHING WE WANT
TO RELEASE TO THE PRESS?

RESPIRATORY
AND FOMITES?

AND HOW'S THE PUBLIC
GONNA REACT TO THAT?

HARD TO SAY.

A PLASTIC SHARK IN A MOVIE
WILL KEEP PEOPLE FROM
GETTING IN THE OCEAN,

BUT A WARNING ON THE SIDE
OF A PACK OF CIGARETTES...

WE'RE GOING TO NEED TO
WALK THE GOVERNOR THROUGH THIS

BEFORE WE START
TO FREAK EVERYBODY OUT.

I MEAN, WE CAN'T
EVEN TELL PEOPLE RIGHT NOW

WHAT THEY SHOULD BE
AFRAID OF.

WE TRIED THAT WITH SWINE FLU
AND ALL WE DID WAS GET
HEALTHY PEOPLE SCARED.

IT'S THE BIGGEST
SHOPPING WEEKEND OF THE YEAR.

Man: I THINK WE NEED TO CONSIDER
CLOSING THE SCHOOLS DOWN.

AND WHO STAYS HOME
WITH THE KIDS?

PEOPLE THAT WORK AT STORES?
GOVERNMENT WORKERS?

PEOPLE THAT WORK
AT HOSPITALS?

WHEN WILL WE KNOW WHAT THIS IS?
WHAT CAUSES IT, WHAT CURES IT?

THINGS
THAT KEEP PEOPLE CALM.

WHAT WE NEED TO DETERMINE
IS THIS...

FOR EVERY PERSON
WHO GETS SICK...

HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE
ARE THEY LIKELY TO INFECT?

SO, FOR SEASONAL FLU,
THAT'S USUALLY ABOUT ONE.

SMALLPOX, ON THE OTHER HAND,
IT'S OVER THREE.

NOW, BEFORE WE HAD A VACCINE,

POLIO SPREAD AT A RATE
BETWEEN FOUR AND SIX.

NOW, WE CALL THAT NUMBER...

THE "R-NAUGHT."

"R" STANDS FOR THE REPRODUCTIVE
RATE OF THE VIRUS.

ANY IDEAS WHAT THAT MIGHT BE
FOR THIS?

HOW FAST IT MULTIPLIES
DEPENDS ON A VARIETY OF FACTORS.

THE INCUBATION PERIOD,
HOW LONG A PERSON IS CONTAGIOUS.

SOMETIMES
PEOPLE CAN BE CONTAGIOUS

WITHOUT EVEN
HAVING SYMPTOMS.

WE NEED TO KNOW THAT, TOO.

AND WE NEED TO KNOW
HOW BIG THE POPULATION

OF PEOPLE SUSCEPTIBLE
TO THE VIRUS MIGHT BE.

SO FAR THAT APPEARS TO
BE EVERYONE WITH HANDS,
A MOUTH AND A NOSE.

ONCE WE KNOW THE R-NAUGHT,
WE'LL BE ABLE TO GET A HANDLE

ON THE SCALE
OF THE EPIDEMIC.

SO IT'S AN EPIDEMIC NOW.
AN EPIDEMIC OF WHAT?

WE SENT SAMPLES
TO THE CDC.

IN 72 HOURS,
WE'LL KNOW WHAT IT IS...

IF WE'RE LUCKY.

CLEARLY, WE'RE NOT LUCKY.

David: WHAT DO WE GOT?

A YOUNG WOMAN
IN MINNESOTA...

RECENTLY TRAVELED TO CHINA.

SON ALSO DIED.

AS OF THIS MORNING,
87 CASES, 15 DEATHS.

DID YOU HAVE
A GOOD THANKSGIVING?

I WORKED.

YOU? REALLY?

TEXAS. SALMONELLA.

PRETTY LIMITED.

MINE WAS GREAT, THANKS.

OHH.

IT'S PLEOMORPHIC,
BUT TENDS TOWARD OVOID IN SHAPE.

I CAN SEE SOME STRUCTURES
ON THE SURFACE THAT LOOK
LIKE GLYCOPROTEINS,

BUT THERE'S NOTHING
MORPHOLOGICALLY PATHOGNOMONIC.

WE TESTED
ALL OF OUR ANTIBODIES.

I DIDN'T SEE
MUCH CROSS-REACTIVITY.

HER BODY HAD NO IDEA
WHAT TO DO WITH IT.

IT JUST KEPT AMPLIFYING.

SEND IT TO SUSSMAN
IN SAN FRANCISCO.

IF HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IT IS,
NOBODY DOES.

Dr. Sussman:
SHOWS NOVEL CHARACTERISTICS

AND APPEARS TO BE CHIMERIC
IN ORIGIN.

VIRUS IS 15 TO 19 KILOBASES
IN LENGTH

AND CONTAINING
SIX TO TEN GENES.

TYPICAL
OF A PARAMYXOVIRUS.

IT'S GODZILLA, KING KONG
AND FRANKENSTEIN ALL IN ONE.

POTENTIALLY A MUTANT ON...
OF... OF...

HOLD ON.
SHIT, I'LL CALL YOU BACK.

- AND YOU'VE GOT IT IN THERE, HAVEN'T YOU?
- OH, REALLY.

LOOK,
GET AWAY FROM HERE, ALAN.

WHERE DID IT COME FROM?

MILITARY? INDUSTRIAL?
GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISM?

YOU'RE NOT A DOCTOR
AND YOU'RE NOT A WRITER.

YES, I AM A WRITER.
YES, I AM.

BLOGGING IS NOT WRITING.
IT'S GRAFFITI WITH PUNCTUATION.

I AM A JOURNALIST

AND THERE'S INFORMED DISCUSSION
ON THE BLOGOSPHERE

THAT THIS IS
A BIOLOGICAL WEAPON.

YOU WANT TO TALK TO ME,

CALL MY OFFICE
AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT.

DR. CHEEVER.

YES.

DO YOU HAVE A MOMENT?

SURE.

WE FOUND HIM. TELL
THE UNIT ON THE WAY TO
HIS HOUSE TO COME IN.

EXCUSE ME.
WHO ARE YOU?

MY NAME
IS DENNIS FRENCH,

WITH THE DEPARTMENT
OF HOMELAND SECURITY.

AND WHAT'S THIS
ALL ABOUT?

REAR ADMIRAL HAGGERTY'S
EXPECTING US

IN THE EMERGENCY OPERATIONS
CENTER.

WE CAN DISCUSS IT
THERE.

THIS HAPPENED
IN KOWLOON.

TODAY WE'VE GOT WORKERS
AT A CASINO IN MACAU

STRIKING OVER CONDITIONS.

THREE HAVE DIED
IN ONE BUNKHOUSE.

CIA THINKS
THERE MAY BE A CONNECTION.

CASINOS ARE OF PARTICULAR
CONCERN TO HOMELAND SECURITY.

SOMEONE'S READY
TO BLOW THEMSELVES UP

AT A PIZZERIA
OR THE LOCAL MARKET,

THEN THE THOUGHT OF
GETTING THEMSELVES SICK
WITH SMALLPOX OR PLAGUE

AND WALKING THROUGH
A CROWDED CASINO MUST
HAVE CROSSED THEIR MIND.

WHAT DID THEY DIE OF,
THE THREE?

REPORTS ARE VAGUE.
SEIZURES, COMAS.

WE'VE REACHED OUT TO THE W.H.O.,
SEE WHAT THEY KNOW.

IF YOU WERE GOING TO PLAN IT,
CAN'T THINK OF A BETTER
TIME THAN THANKSGIVING.

PLAN WHAT?

AN ATTACK.

IS THERE ANY WAY SOMEONE COULD
WEAPONIZE THE BIRD FLU?

IS THAT
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT?

SOMEONE DOESN'T HAVE TO
WEAPONIZE THE BIRD FLU.

THE BIRDS
ARE DOING THAT.

Newscaster: GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
ARE REPORTING THE CLOSING

OF MONDALE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
IN SUBURBAN MINNEAPOLIS

IN RESPONSE
TO THE RECENT OUTBREAK

OF A STILL UNKNOWN DISEASE
THAT HAS SO FAR TAKEN THE LIFE

OF A SCHOOL NURSE
AND THREE STUDENTS.

OTHER SCHOOLS IN DISTRICT 281
WILL REMAIN OPEN,

BUT PARENTS HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED

TO KEEP HOME
ANY CHILDREN WITH SYMPTOMS.

THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT
OF HEALTH

IS AWAITING CONFIRMATION,
BUT SOURCES SAY

THESE NEW CASES MAY BE CONNECTED
TO THE SUDDEN DEATH

OF A 34-YEAR-OLD
AIMM ALDERSON EXECUTIVE

AND HER 6-YEAR-OLD SON
THIS HOLIDAY WEEKEND.

HELLO.
I'M DR. MEARS.

I'M AN EPIDEMIC INTELLIGENCE
SERVICE OFFICER.

I'M HERE FROM ATLANTA

TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED
TO BETH EMHOFF.

OKAY, I'M GOING TO ASK YOU
SOME QUESTIONS, AND SEE IF...

THERE WAS A PACKAGE
SHE MESSENGERED FROM HONG KONG.

I OPENED IT WITH SCISSORS.
I'M NOT SURE IF I TOUCHED...

NO. IT SHOULDN'T BE
AN ISSUE.

THE VIRUS CAN'T LIVE
FOR DAYS ON A BOX.

WE DID PILATES
TOGETHER.

I CALLED HER AFTER SHE GOT BACK.
I NEVER HEARD FROM HER.

SO, YOU HAD NO CONTACT
WITH HER?

NO.

DID SHE GO
TO THE CLASS?

I DIDN'T
SEE HER THERE.

WE HAD COFFEE
THE DAY SHE LEFT.

I THINK
SHE MIGHT HAVE MOVED MY CUP

BECAUSE IT WAS
ON SOME PAPERS.

I CAN'T REMEMBER.

HOW MANY DAYS AGO?

ABOUT TEN DAYS.

THAT'S OKAY.

THE INCUBATION PERIOD
IS LESS THAN THAT.

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO MIGHT
HAVE HAD CONTACT WITH HER?

THIS WAS EVERYONE.

Employee #1:
AARON BARNES DID.

Employee #4: BARNES.
HE WORKED ON ANOTHER FLOOR.

THERE WERE DOCUMENTS
SHE NEEDED TO SIGN.

HE PICKED HER UP
FROM THE AIRPORT.

HE PICKED HER UP
FROM THE AIRPORT?

YES.

WHERE IS HE?

HELLO?

HELLO? MR. BARNES?

Yes.

THIS IS DR. MEARS FROM
THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL.

Hi.

I BELIEVE... HI.

I BELIEVE YOU MAY
HAVE HAD CONTACT WITH
BETH EMHOFF LAST WEEK.

Yeah. I picked her up
at the airport.

What's this about?

AND HOW ARE YOU FEELING
TODAY?

Uh, pretty cruddy, to be honest.
Head is pounding.

I probably picked up
some sort of bug.

WHERE ARE YOU RIGHT NOW?

I'm on the bus, heading to work.

I'D LIKE YOU TO GET OFF
IMMEDIATELY.

HE'S ON A BUS.

Dave: WHERE?

Wait. What?
What's going on?

WHERE? WHERE,
WHERE'S THE BUS, AARON?

Um, uh, Lake and Lyndale.

Can you tell me what's going on?

LAKE AND LYNDALE.

I REALLY NEED YOU
TO GET OFF THAT BUS.

LISTEN, IT'S QUITE POSSIBLE
YOU'VE COME IN CONTACT

WITH AN INFECTIOUS DISEASE AND
THAT YOU'RE HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

I want you to get off now.

OKAY, I'M GETTING OFF.

And stay away from other people.

NOW WHAT DO I DO?

Don't talk to anyone,

don't touch anyone,
that's the most important thing.

We'll send somebody
to meet the bus.

OKAY.

I'm on my way to you now, Aaron.

WHAT ABOUT MY KIDS?
I TOUCHED THEM.

IT WAS A GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY
FOR A NEW FACTORY.

SHE TRAVELED A LOT
FOR, FOR WORK.

Erin: DID HER WORK
INVOLVE CONTACT WITH
LIVESTOCK IN ANY WAY?

DID YOU KEEP ANY PETS
AT HOME?

NO.

NO.

DID SHE MENTION
SEEING ANYONE WHO WAS SICK?

ANYONE ON A PLANE?

NO.

SHE WENT THROUGH CUSTOMS
IN CHICAGO AT 11:15 A.M.

AND THEN TOOK A FLIGHT
TO MINNEAPOLIS AT 6 P.M.

ANY IDEA WHAT SHE DID IN CHICAGO
DURING THAT LAYOVER?

DID SHE HAVE MEETINGS?

IS THERE ANY REASON
SHE MIGHT HAVE LEFT THE AIRPORT?

WHY? I MEAN, IS, UH, IS THERE
SOMEONE SICK IN CHICAGO?

UH, BEFORE WE WERE MARRIED,
MY WIFE HAD A RELATIONSHIP

WITH A MAN IN CHICAGO
NAMED JON NEAL.

IS JON NEAL SICK?

DID WE GET THIS FROM HIM?

WE'RE INVESTIGATING
ALL THE POSSIBILITIES.

NO, I THINK
I HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW.

LOOK AT WHERE I AM HERE.
LOOK AT WHERE I AM HERE.

I CAN'T DISCLOSE
THAT INFORMATION. I'M SORRY.

NO, I'M JUST, I'M JUST TRYING
TO UNDERSTAND.

I KNOW.

Ally: WE'RE GETTING
THE SAME RESULTS AS SUSSMAN.

WE'VE SEQUENCED THE VIRUS
AND DETERMINED ITS ORIGIN,

AND WE'VE MODELED
THE WAY IT ENTERS

THE CELLS OF THE LUNG
AND THE BRAIN.

AND THE VIRUS CONTAINS
BOTH BAT AND PIG SEQUENCES
IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT.

BUT, SEE, THE DARK GREEN IS PIG
AND THE LIGHT GREEN IS BAT,

AND HERE YOU CAN SEE
THE CROSSOVER EVENT.

PIG, BAT, BAT...
AND PIG, BAT.

AND HERE IS
A MODEL OF THE VIRUS

AND HOW IT ATTACHES
TO ITS HOST.

THE BLUE IS VIRUS,
AND THE GOLD IS HUMAN

AND THE RED
IS THE VIRAL ATTACHMENT PROTEIN,

AND THE GREEN IS ITS RECEPTOR
IN THE HUMAN CELLS.

THESE RECEPTORS ARE FOUND
IN THE CELLS OF BOTH

THE RESPIRATORY TRACT
AND THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.

AND THE VIRUS
ATTACHES TO THE CELL

LIKE A KEY
SLIPPING INTO A LOCK.

SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD,

THE WRONG PIG MET UP
WITH THE WRONG BAT.

YOU EVER SEEN ANYTHING
LIKE THIS BEFORE?

NO.
AND IT'S STILL CHANGING.

IT'S FIGURING US OUT FASTER
THAN WE'RE FIGURING IT OUT.

IT DOESN'T HAVE
ANYTHING ELSE TO DO.

SO WE HAVE A NOVEL VIRUS

WITH A MORTALITY RATE
IN THE LOW TWENTIES.

NO TREATMENT PROTOCOL
AND NO VACCINE AT THIS TIME.

THAT IS CORRECT.

FROM HERE ON OUT,
I WANT NO ONE WORKING ON THIS

EXCEPT A BSL-4.

THE LAST THING WE NEED
IS FOR THIS THING

TO WALK OUT OF THE LAB
ON THE BOTTOM OF SOMEONE'S SHOE.

DR. SUSSMAN'S OFFICE.

Ian, hi.
Ally Hextall.

WE NEED TO SHUT YOU DOWN.
THIS THING'S TOO HOT.

BSL-4 only at this point.

I THINK THAT'S A MISTAKE.

COOK YOUR SAMPLES.
DESTROY EVERYTHING.

We can't risk it.

WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS.

YOU LIMIT THIS TO GOVERNMENT-RUN
BSL-4's, IT'LL TAKE FOREVER.

I CAN DO THIS.

I'M SORRY.

YEAH.

SURE, ALLY.

Reporter #1: CAN YOU REPEAT
THE AFFECTED CITIES SO FAR?

Ellis: AGAIN, THE AFFECTED
CITIES ARE MINNEAPOLIS,

CHICAGO, LOS ANGELES,
BOSTON AND SALT LAKE.

WE EXPECT THAT LIST TO GROW

AS PEOPLE RETURN HOME
FROM THEIR HOLIDAYS.

YES?

Reporter #2: DR. CHEEVER,
HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE INFECTED

AND HOW MANY HAVE DIED?

WELL, THOSE NUMBERS
ARE CHANGING AS WE SPEAK,

SO ANY FIGURE I GIVE YOU
IS LIKELY TO BE LOW.

WE'RE STILL CALCULATING
THE MORTALITY RATE AT THIS TIME.

Reporter: DR. CHEEVER,
ARE YOU CONCERNED

THAT THE CDC FACES
A CREDIBILITY ISSUE HERE

AFTER THE PERCEIVED
OVERREACTION TO H1N1?

I'D RATHER THE NEWS STORY BE
THAT WE OVERREACTED

THAN MANY PEOPLE LOST
THEIR LIVES BECAUSE
WE DIDN'T DO ENOUGH.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE TODAY.

IT'S ALSO WHY
THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION

IS SENDING AN EPIDEMIOLOGIST
TO HONG KONG.

IT'S HARD TO KNOW WHAT
IT IS WITHOUT KNOWING
WHERE IT CAME FROM,

SO OUR FIRST JOB
WITH THESE THINGS

IS ALWAYS
TO FIND GROUND ZERO.

FIGURE OUT HOW IT JUMPED INTO
THE POPULATION TO BEGIN WITH.

WE DO KNOW
THAT A PATIENT IN MINNESOTA

TRAVELED TO THAT PART
OF THE WORLD.

Damian: WE BELIEVE

THAT THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY
89,000 CASES AT THIS POINT.

AND THAT
WE ARE HEADING TOWARD...

267,000...

AND FROM THERE...

USING OUR MODEL,
BASED ON AN R-NAUGHT OF TWO...

HERE IS WHERE WE EXPECT TO BE
IN 48 HOURS.

DR. CHEEVER, PERHAPS YOU CAN
UPDATE US ON THE RESEARCH.

AS OF RIGHT NOW,
NO ONE HAS FOUND A GOOD WAY

TO GROW THE VIRUS IN CELLS.

Leonora: WHY IS THAT?

BECAUSE IT KILLS EVERY CELL
WE PUT IT IN...

A PIG, A CHICKEN,
EVERYTHING.

UNTIL WE CAN GROW IT,
AND A GREAT DEAL OF IT,

WE CAN'T EXPERIMENT
WITH IT.

AND UNTIL THEN, WE CAN'T
VACCINATE AGAINST IT.

HAVE YOU FOUND
ANY TREATMENT AT ALL?

ANY ANTIVIRUS?
ANYTHING?

NO.

Leonora: BETH EMHOFF USED AN ATM
AT A CASINO IN MACAU.

CITIBANK RELEASED
HER RECORDS.

WE HAVE HER USING THE MACHINE
AT 10:43,

JUST OFF
THE CASINO FLOOR.

I WANT TO SEE
THE CASINO SECURITY FOOTAGE

FOR TWO HOURS
ON EITHER SIDE OF THAT.

IS THERE A PROBLEM?

THEY'RE FROM MY VILLAGE.
THEY FOUND A NEW CLUSTER THERE.

OH.

IS YOUR FAMILY
STILL THERE?

MY MOTHER HAS SYMPTOMS.

I'LL GET YOU THE FOOTAGE
YOU REQUIRE. EXCUSE ME.

Dr. Sussman, I heard that
they were shutting us down.

I JUST HAVE TO DEAL
WITH THE SAMPLES.

If it's just a matter
of destroying them, I can do it.

NO, I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.
YOU GO ON HOME.

I'LL DO THAT, AND THEN I JUST
WANT TO RE-CHECK SOME DATA.

Ellis: HE GREW IT.

Ally: HE TRIED ANTIBODIES

AND IMMUNOLOGICAL MAC OUTLINES
LIKE WE DID,

BUT THE KEY WAS A FETAL
BAT CELL LINE FROM GEELONG.

WE DIDN'T HAVE IT.

HE GREW IT IN A BSL-3.

ALLY, WHAT THE HELL WAS HE DOING
WORKING WITH IT IN A BSL-3?

IGNORING ME.

HE'S GOING TO PUBLISH.
SHIT.

WHAT DOES HE WANT?

A BOX OF CIGARS.

HE HAD A CHOICE, ELLIS.

HE COULD HAVE GONE INTO BUSINESS
FOR HIMSELF.

THERE'S NO DOUBT
HE WAS APPROACHED,

BUT HE GAVE IT TO US.

ARE WE SUPPOSED TO
TRUST HIM?

WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE.

BBC reporter:
THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE
CONTROL AND PREVENTION

IN THE UNITED STATES

AND THE WORLD HEALTH
ORGANIZATION IN SWITZERLAND

CONFIRMED TODAY THAT
DR. IAN SUSSMAN OF SAN FRANCISCO

HAS SUCCEEDED
IN GROWING THE MEV-1 VIRUS

IN A LABORATORY SETTING.

OFFICIALS AT THE CDC CAUTIONED

THAT THE BREAKTHROUGH
IS ONLY THE FIRST STEP

TOWARD DEVELOPING A VACCINE,

WHICH IS LIKELY STILL
MONTHS AWAY FROM HUMAN TRIALS.

THE W.H.O. ESTIMATES THE NUMBER
OF PEOPLE INFECTED WORLDWIDE

TO BE OVER 8 MILLION.

Alan:
NOW IT ALL CHANGES.

SUSSMAN GETS ANOINTED BY THE
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES,

AND EVERY PHARMACEUTICAL
EXECUTIVE GETS A HARD-ON.

THEY'LL BE GROWING THE VIRUS
IN EVERY LAB ON EARTH.

THAT'S A BAD DAY
TO BE A RHESUS MONKEY.

CRIKEY, FIRST WE SHOOT THEM
INTO SPACE,

AND NOW WE'LL BE SHOOTING THEM
FULL OF VIRUS.

SO THIS IS WHERE WE NEED
YOUR EXPERTISE.

ALL THE PHARMACEUTICAL STOCKS
ARE ALREADY THROUGH THE ROOF.

BUT WHAT'S NEXT?
WHERE'S THE OPPORTUNITY?

NOW, YOU SAW THAT
SHINKO BUS THING DAY ONE.

THAT'S WHY
WE WANTED THIS MEETING.

WHEN I TURNED ON MY COMPUTER
THIS MORNING,

I HAD OVER TWO MILLION
UNIQUE VISITORS

ALL LOOKING
FOR THE TRUTH.

YOU THINK THEY WANT TO SEE ME
TALKING TO SOME HEDGE FUND GUY?

MR. KRUMWIEDE,
WE DON'T INVENT NEED HERE.

WE JUST ANALYZE IT.
PREDICT IT.

YOU TELL ME WHAT IT COSTS
TO LOOK INTO YOUR CRYSTAL BALL.

YOU'RE FAMILIAR
WITH FORSYTHIA?

NO, I'M NOT.

WHAT I'M ABOUT TO TELL YOU
IS BACKED UP BY TESTIMONIALS

THAT WILL APPEAR SHORTLY
IN THE POPULAR MEDIA.

I'LL BE TALKING ABOUT IT
EXTENSIVELY IN THE DAYS AHEAD.

WHAT DOES FORSYTHIA DO?

IT'S THE CURE.

Mitch: IF I'M IMMUNE, CAN'T
YOU USE MY BLOOD TO CURE THIS?

Erin: BLOOD SERUMS CAN TAKE
A LONG TIME TO MAKE,

AND THEY'RE VERY EXPENSIVE.

BUT THE GOOD NEWS HERE IS THAT
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET SICK.

OKAY.

UM, THEN THAT WOULD MEAN

THAT, UH, THAT MY DAUGHTER
CAN'T GET IT EITHER, RIGHT?

I CAN'T PROMISE YOU THAT.

BUT ISN'T THAT SOMETHING
THAT SHE WOULD INHERIT FROM ME?

WELL, HALF HER IMMUNE SYSTEM
CAME FROM YOU,

BUT THE OTHER HALF CAME
FROM HER MOTHER.

Man: ALMOST THREE HOURS!

I NEED TO SEE A DOCTOR
OR A SUPERVISOR OR SOMETHING.

I WANT TO KNOW IF HE HAS
THIS THING ON THE NEWS!

Nurse: I'M SORRY, SIR,
WE'RE DOING THE BEST WE CAN.

CAN I JUST SPEAK TO
AN ADMINISTRATOR OR SOMETHING?

ANYBODY!

SIR, YOU NEED
TO BE PATIENT.

WE'LL GET YOU IN
AS SOON AS WE CAN.

HE'S SICK!

Dave: MY WIFE MAKES ME TAKE OFF
MY CLOTHES IN THE GARAGE,

THEN SHE LEAVES OUT A BUCKET
OF WARM WATER AND SOME SOAP.

AND THEN SHE DOUSES EVERYTHING
IN HAND SANITIZER AFTER I LEAVE.

I MEAN,
SHE'S OVERREACTING, RIGHT?

NOT REALLY. AND STOP
TOUCHING YOUR FACE, DAVE.

OKAY, WE'LL PUT
THE AIRLOCK HERE.

I WANT 25 ROWS,
10 BEDS APIECE.

THE MOST FEBRILE CASES
AT THIS END.

WE'LL SET UP TRIAGE
OUTSIDE,

FEMA CAN HANDLE FOOD
IN THE BASEMENT,

AND WE'LL NEED TO BE OPERATIONAL
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 TO 48 HOURS.

GOT YOU.

NICE JOB, DAVE.
THIS'LL WORK.

THANKS.

NOW FIND ME THREE MORE
JUST LIKE IT.

Woman:
EXCUSE ME, DR. MEARS.

IS THIS COMING OUT
OF YOUR BUDGET, OR OURS?

THE W.H.O. HAS CONFIRMED
THAT THE HONG KONG SAMPLE

MATCHES LONDON, TOKYO
AND ABU DHABI,

AND WE'RE SEEING LARGE CLUSTERS
IN FROM FRANKFURT AND CAIRO.

Are we any closer
to an index patient?

COULD BE YOUR BETH EMHOFF,
OR THE GUY ON THE BUS IN JAPAN.

SOMEONE ELSE
WHO CRAWLED OFF THE GRID.

HOW YOU DOING?

Yeah, good.
I'm going into a meeting...

NO, MEARS, I DIDN'T ASK YOU
WHAT YOU WERE DOING,

I ASKED YOU HOW YOU WERE DOING.
HOW ARE YOU DOING?

I'M, UH...

I'M FINE.

Fine?

You know, I was in the field
for about 15 years.

I've seen a lot of shit.

If you're not doing fine,
you can tell me.

YOU EVER HAVE TO TELL A MAN

WHO JUST LOST HIS WIFE
AND STEPSON

THAT HIS WIFE WAS CHEATING
ON HIM BEFORE SHE DIED?

No, I haven't.

I'm sure you did
the best you could.

UNH-UNH.

You sound tired.

You got to try to remember
to sleep once in a while.

When was the last time
you had something to eat

that didn't come
out of a vending machine?

TACO BELL?

LOCAL OFFICIALS ARE NOW SAYING

OVER 3,000 CASES
HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED

IN THE WESTERN SUBURBS,

AS WELL AS THE FIRST CASES
REPORTED

IN RAMSEY, CARLTON
AND ST. LOUIS COUNTIES,

AS THE VIRUS CONTINUES
TO SPREAD.

Jory: I GOT IT!

A STATE HEALTH DEPARTMENT
SPOKESPERSON AT THIS HOUR

IS APPEALING TO HOSPITALS
AS FAR AWAY AS IOWA

FOR ADDITIONAL MEDICINE.

NO, DON'T OPEN THAT DOOR!
DON'T, DON'T OPEN THE DOOR.

WHAT? IT'S ANDREW.

UH, SORRY, ANDREW.
I CAN'T LET YOU IN.

I JUST CAME TO GIVE
MY CONDOLENCES, MR. EMHOFF.

I UNDERSTAND, THANK YOU.
UH, BUT I CAN'T LET YOU IN.

I'LL JUST LEAVE THEM,
THEN.

NO, ACTUALLY,
YOU SHOULD TAKE THEM.

UH, THANK YOU, THOUGH.

I'LL CALL YOU LATER.

BYE.

WE JUST, YOU KNOW,
CAN'T TAKE ANY CHANCES.

Woman: DO YOU KNOW
HOW TO PLAY THIS ONE?

NO, I HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT'S GOING ON.

BUT IT LOOKS FUN.

YOU WANT TO TRY?

OKAY.

OH, YEAH, MY TURN, OKAY.

Man: HEY!

OH! OH! OH, MY GOD.

I'LL DO... WHAT IS THAT?
WHICH ONE IS THIS?

IT'S A COIN.

OH. OKAY, OKAY.

OKAY.

Leonora:
IT'S TRANSMISSION.

SO WE JUST NEED TO KNOW
WHICH DIRECTION.

BUT WE DON'T KNOW
WHERE IT COMES FROM.

I WOULD LIKE TO SUGGEST THAT
THE VIRUS STARTED BEFORE MACAU.

AND MAYBE HERE IN HONG KONG.

YOU'RE CONSIDERING
PRONOUNCEMENTS

WITH SERIOUS IMPLICATIONS.

A VIRUS IS TOO SMALL
TO BE SEEN ON VIDEO CAMERA.

PLEASE, GOD.

PLEASE, GOD.

NO, NO. NO.

HELLO.

THIS IS DR. ERIN MEARS
IN ROOM 821.

I NEED YOU TO GET ME THE NAMES

OF EVERYONE WHO SERVICED
THIS ROOM IN THE LAST 24 HOURS.

ALSO, YOU NEED
TO GET IN TOUCH WITH...

THE WAITER WHO BROUGHT ME
MY ROOM SERVICE LAST NIGHT.

I NEED ALL OF THEIR NUMBERS...
HOME, CELL, EVERYTHING, YES.

Mears?

DR. CHEEVER...

I THINK I'M SICK.

What? What's going on?

What kind of symptoms
do you have?

CAN'T SWALLOW.

SEVERE HEADACHE.

What's your temperature?

101.8.

Uh, listen, you can't, you just,
you can't panic now, okay?

NO, I KNOW. I KNOW.

Are you alone?

I DEFINITELY INFECTED
OTHER PEOPLE.

You don't know that.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Well, I want you
to stay in your room

and I'll, I'll call the people
at the Health Department.

I'll tell them that
you're there. Erin, just...

You're going to be okay.

NO, I KNOW. I KNOW.

Okay.

YOU GOT TO SEND
SOMEBODY ELSE.

Yes, but you don't worry
about that right now, okay?

HEY...

You take care of yourself.

I'M SORRY
I COULDN'T FINISH.

That's, that's...
Never mind that.

Look, let me see what I can do
about getting you back here.

I'm gonna get you home
if I can. Healthy.

THANK YOU.

Now, you hang in there.

BYE.

Bye.

BYE.

Man: THE PROBLEM IS,
WE JUST CAN'T TAKE DELIVERY

OF THE BODIES.

WE HAVE INSURANCE ISSUES.
WITH OUR OWN EMPLOYEES.

WITH OUR UNION,
NOT TO MENTION

THE HEALTH OF THE MOURNERS
TO CONSIDER.

I JUST... I WANT TO BURY MY WIFE
AND MY STEPSON, AND...

HAVE A SERVICE WHERE OUR FRIENDS
AND OUR FAMILY

CAN COME AND, AND PAY
THEIR RESPECTS. AND GRIEVE.

I UNDERSTAND.

AND I AM TRULY SORRY
ABOUT YOUR LOSS.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED
OTHER OPTIONS?

Sarah: HOW CAN THEY DO THAT?
WE HAVE A FAMILY PLOT HERE.

Mitch: THEY WANT US
TO THINK ABOUT CREMATION.

THEY SAY
THAT IT'S THE SAFEST THING

IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS.

I WANT TO BE BURIED
WITH MY DAUGHTER AND GRANDSON,

WITH JACK,
AND MY PARENTS...

I WANT US ALL TOGETHER.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO
TAKE THEM, SARAH.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO
TAKE THE BODIES.

I'LL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.
I'LL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

SHE MADE MISTAKES, MITCH.

BUT I KNOW
SHE LOVED YOU VERY MUCH.

I'M GONNA USE SOME OF THESE
TO GET US SOME DRINKS.

OKAY?

You have not reached Jon Neal.

But you will
if you leave a message.

HI. IT'S ME.

UM...

I CHECKED THE FLIGHTS

AND I CAN ACTUALLY GET
AN EARLIER FLIGHT

THAT WOULD GIVE ME
A FIVE-HOUR LAYOVER IN CHICAGO,

SO LET ME KNOW

IF THAT'S SOMETHING
THAT YOU'D LIKE ME TO DO.

THAT'S FOR YOU, OKAY?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU.

Irina: EXCUSE ME.

Beth: OH, MY GOD.

THANK YOU.

Leonora: EMHOFF GAVE IT
TO THE UKRAINIAN.

Sun Feng:
THAT JUST SHOWS CONTACT.

MAYBE IT WENT
THE OTHER WAY.

WHAT ABOUT I. FAI?
HE WAS ON THE CASINO FLOOR.

WATCH THIS.

OKAY, COME ON.
LET'S GET ONE TOGETHER.

READY?

Man: LET'S GO.

THAT'S HIM. WITH EMHOFF.
AT 12:08.

I CAN SHOW YOU THE UKRAINIAN
WOMAN ON THE SECURITY CAMERA

IN THE ELEVATOR
GOING BACK TO HER ROOM,

TWENTY MINUTES EARLIER.

SHE WAS GONE
BEFORE I. FAI STARTED WORK.

IT CAME FROM HERE.

EMHOFF IS
THE INDEX PATIENT.

WE NEED TO KNOW EVERYWHERE
SHE WENT BEFORE THE CASINO.

I WANT TO SEE
HER ITINERARY AGAIN.

THEY SAY THE FRENCH
AND AMERICANS HAVE A CURE.

THEY'RE MANUFACTURING IT
IN SECRET.

W.H.O. KNOWS,

BUT THEY'RE IN BED
WITH THE AMERICANS.

WHO SAYS?

THE INTERNET.

THE INTERNET?
AND YOU BELIEVE IT.

I DON'T KNOW.

HOW'S YOUR MOTHER?

WE TRIED FORSYTHIA,
BUT SHE WASN'T STRONG.

THERE'S A MASS GRAVE
IN LANTAU.

I'M SORRY.

I'M TAKING THIS
TO THE MINISTRY.

WE NEED TO SEND THIS
TO GENEVA.

I NEED YOU
TO COME WITH ME.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

PLEASE.

WHOA! WHAT'S GOING ON?!
SUN FENG!

WHAT'S GOING ON?!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I'M SORRY.

WE COULDN'T WAIT
ANY LONGER.

WHILE THEY CURE EACH OTHER,
WE'RE HERE...

AT THE END OF THE LINE.

THIS IS WHAT IS LEFT
OF MY VILLAGE.

Leonora: ARE THEY SICK?

NOT YET.

AND WE'RE GOING TO
KEEP IT THAT WAY.

YOU STAY HERE WITH US,
UNTIL THEY FIND A CURE.

HOW IS THAT GONNA HELP?

YOU'RE GOING TO GET US
TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE.

Dave: DR. MEARS.

DR. CHEEVER CALLED AGAIN.

WE'RE JUST HAVING
A HARD TIME

WITH THE LOGISTICS
OF EVACUATING YOU.

FINDING A PLANE AND ALL.

I GOT YOUR PHONE.

DR. CHEEVER ASKED YOU TO CALL,
IF YOU FEEL UP TO IT.

NOW, WE'RE SETTING UP A SPECIAL
WARD FOR MEDICAL PERSONNEL

AND FIRST RESPONDERS
AT THE UNIVERSITY.

I WANT TO MOVE YOU THERE,

BUT THE NURSES' UNION
IS CALLING A WORK STOPPAGE...

UNTIL PROTOCOLS
ARE IN PLACE.

THERE ARE VOLUNTEERS,
BUT IT'S JUST...

IT'S HARD RIGHT NOW TO KNOW
WHERE'S THE RIGHT PLACE.

Lyle:
YOU'RE ASKING ME TO SPEND A LOT
OF RESOURCES ON ONE PERSON,

AND RIGHT NOW,
I CAN'T DO THAT.

DR. MEARS WOULD AGREE
WITH ME.

SHE'S ONE OF OUR OWN, LYLE.
WE SENT HER UP THERE.

OKAY, I SENT HER UP THERE.
I WOULD LIKE TO GO GET HER BACK.

THAT'S WHY WE HAVE A PLANE
WITH AN ISOLATION POD,

TO BRING OUR PEOPLE
IN THE FIELD HOME
WHEN THEY'RE SICK, RIGHT?

WHAT'S GOING ON, LYLE?

THERE'S A SICK CONGRESSMAN
FROM ILLINOIS IN D.C.

HE WAS IN CHICAGO
OVER THE HOLIDAY.

THEY'RE USING THE POD
TO FLY HIM HOME.

THEN THEY'RE CLOSING DOWN
MIDWAY AND O'HARE.

THE GOVERNOR THERE IS
CALLING OUT THE NATIONAL GUARD.

THEY'RE SETTING UP
ROADBLOCKS.

THEY'RE SHUTTING DOWN
THE BOARD OF TRADE,

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION.

EVEN THE TEAMSTERS ARE PULLING
THEIR DRIVERS OFF THE ROAD.

PEOPLE ARE STILL GONNA SLIP
THROUGH, YOU KNOW THAT.

YES, THEY WILL.

THE SECRET SERVICE IS MOVING
THE PRESIDENT UNDERGROUND.

CONGRESS IS FIGURING OUT
HOW TO WORK ONLINE.

WHEN THE WORD GOES OUT,

THERE WILL BE A RUN
ON THE BANKS, GAS STATIONS,

GROCERY STORES,
YOU NAME IT.

PEOPLE WILL PANIC.
THE VIRUS WILL BE
THE LEAST OF OUR WORRIES.

IT WILL TIP OVER NOW.

WE JUST NEED TO MAKE SURE
THAT NOBODY KNOWS

UNTIL EVERYBODY KNOWS.

Alan:
MY TEMPERATURE'S 101.

HIGHER THAN IT WAS EARLIER.

MY HEAD HURTS...

AND MY THROAT
FEELS LIKE IT'S CLOSING.

THIS IS FORSYTHIA.

I'VE BEEN TAKING IT
SINCE THE ONSET OF THE SYMPTOMS.

IF I'M HERE TOMORROW,
YOU'LL KNOW IT WORKS.

"TRUTH SERUM NOW."
I'M ALAN KRUMWIEDE.

How many people
are going to die?

WELL, IN 1918,

ONE PERCENT OF THE POPULATION
DIED FROM SPANISH FLU.

IT WAS NOVEL, LIKE THIS.
NO ONE HAD EVER SEEN IT BEFORE.

One percent of America?

ONE PERCENT OF THE WORLD.

AS MANY AS 70 MILLION PEOPLE
COULD DIE, BABY, MAYBE MORE.

SO WHAT DO WE DO?

I don't know.
We try to figure it out.

This is why I sent Mears
up there, to Minnesota.

And now I can't get her back.

She's sick, Aubrey,
and I can't do anything for her

because there are no nurses now.

WHY NOT?

Because they're on strike.

HOW CAN THEY DO THAT?

BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING
THEY CAN DO.

I MEAN, WE'RE JUST
PUTTING HEALTHY PEOPLE
NEXT TO SICK PEOPLE

AND HOPING THAT THE HEALTHY
PEOPLE DON'T GET SICK.

It's ridiculous.

I'M SORRY, ELLIS,
BUT THAT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.

I sent her up there, Aubrey.

IF ONE IN FOUR ARE DYING,

THAT MEANS THREE OUT OF FOUR
ARE LIVING, RIGHT?

So the odds are in her favor.

I WANT YOU
TO GET IN YOUR CAR

AND I WANT YOU TO DRIVE
DOWN HERE TO ATLANTA RIGHT NOW,
YOU HEAR ME, AUBREY?

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

I want you to get in your car
and leave Chicago.

I want you to drive here
to Atlanta. Drive by yourself.

YOU DO IT.
YOU DO IT NOW.

DON'T TELL ANYONE,
AND DON'T STOP.

AND STAY AWAY FROM
OTHER PEOPLE, YOU UNDERSTAND?

KEEP YOUR DISTANCE
FROM OTHER PEOPLE.

NOW, CALL ME
WHEN YOU'RE ON THE ROAD, AUBREY.

ROGER.

DID YOU HEAR...?

I GOT PEOPLE, TOO,
DR. CHEEVER.

WE ALL DO.

Aubrey: HELLO?

Hey, friend, what's up
with blowing off dinner?

I'M SORRY, LIZ.

Why you so flaky?
You feeling okay?

THIS FLU SH...

STUFF IS REALLY SPOOKY.

WHAT DOES ELLIS SAY?

UH, HE SAYS IT'S,
HE SAYS IT'S SERIOUS.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, SERIOUS?

WHERE ARE YOU?

I'm getting out of town.

WHAT?

I'M GOING TO
TELL YOU SOMETHING...

AND YOU'RE NOT
GOING TO REPEAT IT.

COVER YOUR MOUTH, PLEASE.

FUCK OFF, LADY.

Woman: WE WILL ONLY BE ABLE
TO GIVE OUT FIFTY DOSES TODAY.

THAT'S OUR FORSYTHIA ALLOTMENT.

HEY. EXCUSE ME!
THERE'S A LINE HERE!

EXCUSE ME!

Mitch: JESUS.

WHERE'S
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT?

IS ANYONE
EVEN WORKING HERE?

JUST GET THE CEREAL.

JORY,
DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING.

HELP ME!

OKAY,
TAKE YOUR GLOVES OFF.

HERE.
GIVE ME YOUR HANDS.

NOW,
REALLY RUB THIS IN.

Mitch: HEY, GET AWAY
FROM THERE! GET AWAY!

LOCK THE DOOR.

GET BACK IN YOUR CAR, SIR!
GET BACK IN YOUR CAR!

NO, NO, I'M NOT... I'M IMMUNE!
I'VE ALREADY HAD IT!

AND MY DAUGHTER'S
NOT SICK.

SHE'S SICK?

SHE'S NOT.

NO, WE'RE JUST TRYING
TO GET TO WISCONSIN.

THE BORDER IS SEALED.

THE GOVERNOR HAS DECLARED
A QUARANTINE.

GET BACK IN YOUR CAR.

NO, WE DON'T WANT
TO GO BACK THERE!

WE WANT TO GO ACROSS!

SIR, THERE IS NO WAY ACROSS.
GET BACK IN YOUR CAR.

WE'RE NOT SICK!

GET BACK IN YOUR CAR
OR I WILL DETAIN YOU.

WHERE?

GET IN THE CAR!

WHAT HAPPENED?

WE HAVE TO GO HOME.

Alan:
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I THINK
I HAD A SEIZURE.

I CAN'T, I CAN'T FIND ANY
IN THE STORES.

I TRIED.

LOOK,
I DON'T HAVE ANY HERE.

PEOPLE BROKE IN.

I'M PREGNANT, ALAN.

I HAVE, I HAVE...

MONEY.

I CAN, I CAN GIVE YOU
SOME MONEY.

LORRAINE,
YOU SHOULDN'T BE OUT.

GO HOME. I'LL BRING IT TO YOU
WHEN I GET IT.

Man: I WAS W-W-W-WONDERING,
IF I COULD GET ANOTHER BLANKET?

THIS ONE'S VERY DAMP NOW.

Nun: I'M TRULY SORRY, SIR.
WE'RE OUT OF BLANKETS.

WE'RE HOPING FOR MORE
TO BE DONATED.

WE PUT THE WORD OUT.

WHAT ABOUT THE HEAT?
CAN WE TURN THAT UP?

I'LL FIND OUT.

Dave: WHEN DID WE
RUN OUT OF BODY BAGS?

TWO DAYS AGO.

WE'RE TRYING TO GET MORE IN
FROM CANADA,

BUT THEY JUST WANT
TO WAIT AND SEE.

Gupta: THERE ARE STORIES
CIRCULATING ON THE INTERNET

THAT IN INDIA AND ELSEWHERE

THE DRUG RIBAVIRIN
HAS BEEN SHOWN

TO BE EFFECTIVE
AGAINST THIS VIRUS.

YET, HOMELAND SECURITY
IS TELLING THE CDC

NOT TO MAKE
ANY ANNOUNCEMENTS

UNTIL STOCKPILES OF THE DRUG
COULD BE SECURED.

WELL, DR. GUPTA,
THERE CONTINUE

TO BE EVALUATIONS
OF SEVERAL DRUGS.

RIBAVIRIN IS AMONG THEM.

BUT RIGHT NOW,

OUR BEST DEFENSE
HAS BEEN SOCIAL DISTANCING.

NO HANDSHAKING,
STAYING HOME WHEN YOU'RE SICK,

WASHING YOUR HANDS
FREQUENTLY.

CAN, CAN YOU TELL US
TO DATE

HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED
FROM THIS VIRUS?

IT'S VERY DIFFICULT.

WE'RE STILL WORKING ON, UH,
CONFIRMING THAT NUMBER.

THERE ARE FIFTY DIFFERENT STATES
IN THIS COUNTRY,

WHICH MEANS THERE ARE FIFTY
DIFFERENT HEALTH DEPARTMENTS,

FOLLOWED BY
FIFTY DIFFERENT PROTOCOLS.

LET ME BRING IN
ALAN KRUMWIEDE

INTO THIS DEBATE,
AS WELL.

ALAN'S
A FREELANCE JOURNALIST.

HE WAS THE FIRST TO TRACK
THE SHINKO BUS MAN VIDEO.

ALAN, UH, TODAY ON TWITTER,
YOU WROTE

THAT THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS VIRUS
IS BEING KEPT FROM THE WORLD

BY THE CDC, BY THE WORLD
HEALTH ORGANIZATION,

TO ALLOW FRIENDS
OF THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION...

TO BENEFIT FROM IT, BOTH
FINANCIALLY AND PHYSICALLY.

UH, THERE ARE THERAPIES
WE KNOW ARE EFFECTIVE,

RIGHT NOW, LIKE FORSYTHIA,

AND THEY DON'T EVEN APPEAR
ON THE CDC WEBSITE.

ON YOUR BLOG
YOU ALSO WROTE

THAT THE WORLD HEALTH
ORGANIZATION

IS SOMEHOW IN BED
WITH PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES?

BECAUSE THEY ARE.

THAT'S WHO STANDS
TO GAIN FROM THIS.

THEY'RE WORKING
HAND IN GLOVE.

AND THE HAND IS REACHING
INTO OUR POCKETS.

THE CDC IS
EXPLORING FORSYTHIA

AND OTHER
HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENTS.

BUT RIGHT NOW, THERE'S
NO SCIENCE TO BACK
ANY OF THESE CLAIMS.

OR NO WAY DR. CHEEVER

OR THE PEOPLE WHO PUT HIM
INTO POWER CAN PROFIT FROM IT.

WE'RE NOT RULING
ANYTHING OUT.

THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE SICK,
PEOPLE WHO ARE DYING,

AND WE ARE DOING...

THEY'RE NOT KEEPING US SAFE
FROM THIS ANY MORE THAN...

WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT
THE HEALTH OF EVERY
AMERICAN CITIZEN.

DR. CHEEVER IS BEING
A BIT DISINGENUOUS

WHEN HE SAYS
"EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN."

WE'RE WORKING VERY HARD
TO FIND OUT

WHERE THIS VIRUS CAME FROM,
TO TREAT IT...

AND TO VACCINATE AGAINST IT,
IF WE CAN.

WE DON'T KNOW ALL OF THAT YET,
WE JUST DON'T KNOW.

WHAT WE DO KNOW
IS THAT IN ORDER

TO BECOME SICK, YOU HAVE TO
FIRST COME IN CONTACT

WITH A SICK PERSON
OR SOMETHING THAT THEY TOUCHED.

IN ORDER TO GET SCARED,
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO

IS COME IN CONTACT
WITH A RUMOR

OR THE TELEVISION
OR THE INTERNET.

I THINK WHAT MR. KRUMWIEDE
IS SPREADING

IS FAR MORE DANGEROUS
THAN THE DISEASE.

OH, REALLY?

YES.

THAT'S FUNNY.

WHAT'S FUNNY?

I THINK YOU'RE FUNNY, BECAUSE
IF YOU CHECK ON FACEBOOK,

YOU'LL FIND A COMMUNIQUé

ATTRIBUTED TO DR. CHEEVER
BY ELIZABETH NYGAARD

ABOUT THE QUARANTINE
OF CHICAGO,

HOURS BEFORE IT WAS ANNOUNCED
TO THE PUBLIC.

THAT'S WHY I THINK
HE'S A BIT DISINGENUOUS

WHEN HE SAYS EQUAL CARE FOR ALL
AND NOT JUST HIS FRIENDS.

SOME PRETTY WILD ALLEGATIONS
HERE, DR. CHEEVER.

I MEAN, CAN YOU TELL US WHAT
COMMUNICATION APPEARED AND WHEN?

AND WHAT EXACTLY
IS THE NATURE

OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP
WITH ELIZABETH NYGAARD?

WELL, AGAIN, I'M NOT AWARE
OF ANYTHING ATTRIBUTED TO
ME ON ANY SOCIAL NETWORK.

I'M SURE YOU'RE NOT.
IT IS THERE!

IT IS THERE.

TELL THEM WHAT AN R-NAUGHT OF
TWO REALLY MEANS, DR. CHEEVER.

TEACH THEM SOME MATH, HMM?

NO? I'LL DO IT.

ON DAY 1,
THERE WERE TWO PEOPLE WITH IT.

AND THEN THERE WERE FOUR.

AND THEN IT WAS SIXTEEN,

AND YOU THINK YOU'VE GOT IT
IN FRONT OF YOU.

BUT NEXT IT'S 256,
AND THEN IT'S 65,000,

AND IT'S BEHIND YOU AND
ABOVE YOU AND ALL AROUND YOU.

IN THIRTY STEPS,
IT'S A BILLION SICK.

THREE MONTHS. IT'S A MATH
PROBLEM YOU CAN DO ON A NAPKIN.

AND THAT'S WHERE WE'RE HEADED.

AND THAT'S WHY YOU WON'T EVEN
TELL US THE NUMBER OF THE DEAD.

WILL YOU, DR. CHEEVER?

BUT YOU'LL TELL YOUR FRIENDS
WHEN TO GET OUT OF CHICAGO

BEFORE ANYONE ELSE
HAS A CHANCE.

Lyle: THEY'RE LOOKING
FOR A SCAPEGOAT.

YOU JUST MADE IT EASY.

THE ONLY REASON
WE'RE NOT TAKING THIS
TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

IS BECAUSE WE CAN'T REPLACE YOU
RIGHT NOW, BUT...

THERE'S GOING TO BE
AN INVESTIGATION.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?

AND WE DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU
IN FRONT OF THE CAMERAS ANYMORE.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?

IT'S MUTATED.

Ellis: WHICH WAY,
BETTER OR WORSE?

IT'S MOVED INTO
AN AFRICAN HIV AIDS POPULATION.

THE DURBAN CLUSTER
IS HIGHLY DIVERGENT.

WE HAVE A NEW R-NAUGHT, ELLIS.
IT'S NOT TWO ANYMORE.

Ellis: I THOUGHT YOU SAID
THAT ONCE WE COULD GROW IT,

WE COULD VACCINATE
AGAINST IT.

WE TRIED USING DEAD VIRUS

COMBINED WITH SEVERAL ATROPHINS
TO BOOST IMMUNE RESPONSE.

AND?

NO PROTECTIVE ANTIBODIES,
A LOT OF DEAD MONKEYS.

CAN YOU GET TO THE PART
WHERE THERE'S GOOD NEWS?

NOW WE HAVE TO TRY
A LIVE ATTENUATED VIRUS.

LIKE WITH POLIO?

EXACTLY.

THE ONLY DANGER WITH
A LIVE VIRUS IS THE POSSIBILITY

THAT IT WILL REVERT TO WILD-TYPE
AND KILL THE HOST.

AND WHEN WILL WE KNOW
ABOUT THAT?

I'LL ASK THE MONKEYS.

Ellis: AS OF RIGHT NOW,
THE MORTALITY RATE

IS FLUCTUATING
BETWEEN 25% AND 30%,

DEPENDING UPON
UNDERLYING MEDICAL CONDITIONS...

SOCIO-ECONOMIC FACTORS,
NUTRITION, FRESH WATER.

WITH THE NEW MUTATION,

WE ARE PREDICTING AN R-NAUGHT
OF NO LESS THAN FOUR.

AND WITHOUT A VACCINE,
WE CAN ANTICIPATE

THAT APPROXIMATELY ONE
IN TWELVE PEOPLE ON THE PLANET

WILL CONTRACT THE DISEASE.

Man: FOLKS, ATTENTION.
WE APPRECIATE YOUR PATIENCE.

AND WE'RE DOING THE BEST WE CAN.

WE HAVE EXHAUSTED OUR SUPPLY
OF MEALS READY-TO-EAT FOR TODAY.

PLEASE REMAIN CALM.
WE'LL BE SENDING...

PLEASE, HEY!
CAN WE GET SOME HELP OVER HERE?

OH!

WE NEED YOU TO LEAVE THE PARK
IN AN ORDERLY FASHION.

YOU OKAY? SORRY,
THEY GOT ONE OF THEM.

Man: GET THE TRUCKS!

THERE'S NOTHING IN THERE!

Newscaster: AS THE DEATH TOLL
IN THE UNITED STATES

IS NOW BELIEVED
TO HAVE REACHED 2.5 MILLION,

THE PRESIDENT ISSUED
A STATEMENT TODAY

FROM AN UNDISCLOSED LOCATION,

IMPLEMENTING MANDATORY CURFEWS
IN MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREAS

AFTER A SECOND CONSECUTIVE DAY
OF RIOTS

IN DALLAS, MIAMI,
CLEVELAND AND PHOENIX.

ABSENTEEISM IN LAW ENFORCEMENT
IS NEARING 25%

ACCORDING TO REPORTS IN...

Because of
the high volume of 911 calls,

please use
the following directory...

If you have symptoms,
please hang up

and call 612-188-6336.

To report a death
or for the removal of a body,

please press one.

HELLO. ANYBODY HOME?

HEY, MARK.

HEY, JOR?

JOR?

I CAN'T FEEL MY HANDS.

THAT MESSED UP
MY SNOW ANGEL.

I'M FINE, JORY.

IF NEITHER OF US HAVE
IT, THEN WE CAN'T GIVE
IT TO EACH OTHER.

Mitch:
GET AWAY FROM HER!

DAD!

GET AWAY! GET AWAY!

DAD!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

STAY THERE!

GO HOME, ANDREW.

GET UP.

Are we even close?

IF WE EVEN HAD A VIABLE VACCINE
RIGHT NOW,

WE WOULD STILL
HAVE TO DO HUMAN TRIALS

AND THAT WOULD TAKE WEEKS.

AND THEN WE WOULD HAVE TO GET
CLEARANCE AND APPROVAL,

FIGURE OUT
MANUFACTURING AND DISTRIBUTION.

THAT WOULD TAKE MONTHS.

AND THEN TRAINING SURVIVORS
TO GIVE INOCULATIONS.

MORE MONTHS, MORE DEATHS.

Well, Homeland Security
wants to know if we can put

A VACCINATION IN
THE WATER SUPPLY, LIKE FLUORIDE.

CURE EVERYONE
ALL AT ONCE?

I'M GOING HOME NOW, ELLIS.
IT'S GETTING LATE.

Merry Christmas.

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

IT'S OKAY, DAD.

NO, IT'S NOT OKAY.

DO YOU REMEMBER
DR. BARRY MARSHALL?

THOUGHT THAT BACTERIA
CAUSED ULCERS? NOT STRESS.

GAVE HIMSELF THE BUG
AND THEN CURED HIMSELF.

YOU TAUGHT ME ABOUT HIM.

I'M TESTING MY VACCINE.

NO, THIS IS DIFFERENT.

I DON'T WANT
TO GET YOU SICK.

ALLY, YOU CAN'T TAKE
THAT CHANCE.

OH, DAD, YOU'RE HERE BECAUSE
YOU STAYED IN YOUR PRACTICE

TREATING SICK PEOPLE
AFTER EVERYONE ELSE WENT HOME.

YOU TOOK THAT CHANCE.
YOU TOOK THAT CHANCE EVERY DAY.

WHAT?

HE WON A NOBEL PRIZE.

YES, I KNOW, DAD.

BARRY MARSHALL.

Newscaster: THE FOOD
AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION

IS ACCELERATING APPROVAL
OF THE MEV-1 VACCINE

CURRENTLY IN PRODUCTION
AT FIVE SECRET LOCATIONS

IN THE U.S. AND EUROPE,

SAYING THE FIRST DOSES COULD
BE AVAILABLE FOR HUMAN USE

WITHIN 90 DAYS.

THE W.H.O. ESTIMATES THAT
IT COULD TAKE NEARLY A YEAR

TO MANUFACTURE AND DISTRIBUTE
THE NECESSARY AMOUNT

OF THE VACCINE
TO STOP THE SPREAD OF THE VIRUS

WHICH SO FAR HAS TAKEN OVER
26 MILLION LIVES WORLDWIDE.

BUT AS LABS WORK
AROUND THE CLOCK

TO PRODUCE
THE LIFE-SAVING FORMULA,

THE QUESTION REMAINS...
WHO GETS IT FIRST?

DON'T TOUCH ME!
DON'T TOUCH ME!

WHERE IS IT?!

WE DON'T HAVE IT.

THAT'S BULLSHIT!

HE WORKS THERE!
HE GETS IT FIRST!

WE DON'T HAVE IT!
WE HAVE TO WAIT...

Ellis: AUBREY!

ELLIS!

WHERE ARE YOU?

IT'S BECAUSE
THEY SAW YOU ON THE NEWS

AND THEY HEARD
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

THEY KNEW
WHERE YOU WORKED.

THEY WAITED
FOR YOU TO LEAVE.

GET UP HERE. COME ON.
LET ME LOOK AT YOU.

I TRIED TO STOP THEM.

I TRIED.

DID THEY TOUCH YOU?

DID THEY LOOK SICK?

THEY HAD MASKS ON, ELLIS.
AND GLOVES.

DON'T TELL ME THAT...

AUBREY, WE GET THE VACCINE
TOMORROW.

YOU HAVE TO TRUST ME,
ELLIS.

THEY DIDN'T TOUCH ME.

Alan: AFTER THE SPANISH FLU,
IN 1918, YOU KNOW,

PEOPLE GOT RICH.

THE VICKS VapoRub PEOPLE,
THE LYSOL PEOPLE, LOOK IT UP.

ONE MAN DIES, ANOTHER MAN
MAKES MONEY OFF HIS COFFIN.

ONE COUNTRY CULLS
ALL THEIR CHICKENS,

RED MEAT GOES
INTO HIGHER DEMAND.

I'M NOT THE FIRST PERSON
TO MAKE MONEY

OFF THE FACT THAT
OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM IS
A WORK IN PROGRESS.

THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY
DO IT EVERY QUARTER.

I DON'T THINK ANYONE IS IMMUNE
TO OPPORTUNITY, ALAN.

IT'S JUST
THAT THE STUDIES SHOW

THAT THERE IS NO PROOF
THAT FORSYTHIA WORKS.

OKAY, WHO CONDUCTED
THE STUDIES?

WHAT DEFINES "WORKS," AGAINST
WHAT STRAIN OF THE VIRUS?

DID YOU KNOW
ABOUT THE STUDIES

WHEN WE MET
THE LAST TIME?

WE CAN GET IN
A LOT OF TROUBLE...

DO YOU REALLY THINK
THIS DR. HEXTALL CDC PERSON

IS JESUS IN A LAB COAT?

THE GOVERNMENT
RUSHED THE TRIALS.

THE LAWYERS INDEMNIFIED
THE DRUG COMPANIES.

MAYBE IT CAUSES AUTISM
OR NARCOLEPSY OR CANCER

TEN YEARS FROM NOW.

WHO KNOWS?!

YOU, THE, THE SWINE FLU VACCINE
KILLED PEOPLE

BACK IN 1976.

NERVE DISEASE.

SO WE'RE ALL GUINEA PIGS,
STARTING FROM TODAY.

JUST WAIT.

THEY'LL START
LISTING SIDE EFFECTS

LIKE THE CREDITS
AT THE END OF A MOVIE.

PEOPLE TRUST YOU, ALAN.

IF YOU TELL THEM
NOT TO TAKE IT, THEN...

THAT'S RIGHT.
THEY TRUST ME.

ALL TWELVE MILLION
UNIQUE VISITORS.

I'M A TRUSTED MAN,
STEPPING UP TO A MICROPHONE

IN FRONT
OF A VERY LARGE CROWD.

THAT'S WHO I AM.
THAT'S THE BRAND.

I SAY THE RIGHT THING,
NOBODY SHOWS UP FOR THEIR SHOT.

MAYBE THEY'D RATHER
ROLL THE DICE WITH FORSYTHIA.

I CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW

I'M IN THE BEST POSITION
POSSIBLE WHEN I DO.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN,
EXACTLY?

IF I'M GONNA STEP
INTO THE CROSSHAIRS,

I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT'S IN IT...

IS HE WITH YOU?

WHAT? WHO?

ARE YOU WEARING A WIRE?

ALAN, I DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE.
THEY'VE SEEN YOUR BLOG!

FOR WHAT?
TELL ME, FOR WHAT?

SECURITIES FRAUD,
CONSPIRACY

AND MOST LIKELY,
MANSLAUGHTER.

IT CURED ME.
FORSYTHIA CURED ME.

WE'LL SEE, ALAN.

THIS IS ENTRAPMENT.

YOU CAN'T TAKE MY BLOOD!
YOU CAN'T, THAT'S MY PROPERTY.

WE MAY NEVER KNOW
WHERE THIS DISEASE CAME FROM.

BUT WE DO KNOW
THAT THIS VACCINE IS THE RESULT

OF THE COURAGE AND PERSEVERANCE
OF A REMARKABLE FEW.

WE SHALL NOW BEGIN THE DRAWING.

JOHN.

THE FIRST MEV-1 VACCINATION
ARE THOSE PEOPLE BORN

ON MARCH 10th.

MARCH 10th.

WE REMIND ALL OF YOU TO STAY
TEN FEET APART FROM EACH OTHER

WHILE ON LINE.

SHOULDN'T YOU BE
DOWNSTAIRS?

Ally: I'M TRACKING
VACCINE BATCH NUMBERS.

THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO
BE DOING RIGHT THIS MINUTE?

THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DO
RIGHT THIS MINUTE.

TAKE A BOW, ALLY.
PEOPLE HAVE FOR A LOT LESS.

IT'S NOT THAT HARD
TO GIVE YOURSELF AN INJECTION.

WHAT ABOUT MEARS
OR MY FATHER...

OR YOU?

I'M GOING TO TAKE A BOW

WHILE YOU GET HAULED
IN FRONT OF CONGRESS?

WHAT DO I SAY
WHEN THEY ASK ABOUT THAT?

YOU TELL THEM
THAT I TOLD A LOVED ONE,

WHO TOLD A LOVED ONE
AND THAT I'D DO IT AGAIN.

WITHOUT YOU, ALLY...

YOU HAVE SAVED
MILLIONS OF LIVES.

THAT'S A GREAT STORY.
IT ALSO HAPPENS TO BE TRUE.

NOW, HOW OFTEN
CAN YOU SAY THAT?

THE NEXT CITIZENS TO RECEIVE
THE MEV-1 VACCINATION

ARE THOSE BORN ON THE DATE...

WHAT IS THAT?

JANUARY 11th.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. 144.

THAT'S...

STILL, UH, 200...
MORE THAN 200 BIRTHDAYS, HON...

THAT HAVEN'T BEEN CALLED,
SO THAT'S GOOD.

THAT'S A GOOD NUMBER.

WHAT IF THEY RUN OUT?

THEY'RE NOT
GOING TO RUN OUT.

THEY HAVE ENOUGH
TO KEEP UP WITH DEMAND,
THEY SAID THAT ALREADY.

MAYBE I'M IMMUNE LIKE YOU
AND I DON'T EVEN NEED IT.

THAT'S NOT A CHANCE
WE'RE GOING TO TAKE.

SO INSTEAD WE LOSE SPRING,
WE LOSE SUMMER...

WE LOSE ANOTHER 144 DAYS
THAT DON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

WHY CAN'T THEY INVENT A SHOT
THAT KEEPS TIME FROM PASSING?!

IT'S GOING TO START
GETTING NORMAL AGAIN, JORY.

HOW DO YOU CALL THIS "FISH"
IN CHINESE?

THIS IS Yú.

Yú?

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.

THANK YOU.

IT'S TIME. WE HAVE TO RUN.
HE JUST LANDED.

I WANT YOU TO KEEP DRAWING.

AND, UM, ASSAND WILL COME
AND FINISH THE CLASS.

RIGHT?

I'LL SEE YOU SOON.

SEE YOU.

Sun Feng: TSUEN WAN CEMETERY
OFF THE NUMBER THREE EXPRESSWAY.

IT'S CLOSE TO WHERE YOU ARE NOW.
IN FIFTEEN MINUTES.

ONE HUNDRED DOSES.

NOBODY FROM THE MINISTRY,
NO POLICE.

WE SEE ANYBODY ELSE,
ANY OTHER VEHICLES,

YOU'LL NEVER SEE HER AGAIN.

YES.

YES, I'M FINE.

PLEASE,
GIVE THEM WHAT THEY ASK.

I JUST WANT TO GO HOME.

Sun Feng:
ONCE WE HAVE THE VACCINE,

WE'LL TELL YOU
WHERE TO FIND HER.

IS IT FRENCH
OR AMERICAN?

WE COULD NOT GET ENOUGH
DOSES FROM THE FRENCH.
IT'S BEEN MADE HERE.

THE SAME FORMULA,
THOUGH.

IT IS EFFECTIVE.
I PROMISE.

THERE, BE CAREFUL.

WAIT. WHERE IS SHE?

WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS.

WELL,
WE HAVE NO CHOICE.

WHERE'S DR. ORANTES?

NOW, NOW, WAIT,
THIS IS NOT WHAT WE AGREED ON!

ARE YOU OKAY?

YES, I'M FINE.

I'M GOOD.

Damian:
OH, I ALMOST FORGOT.

WHAT'S THAT?

YOUR VACCINE.

THE ONE YOU TOOK
WAS A PLACEBO.

WHAT?

THE CHINESE INSISTED.

THERE HAVE BEEN MANY ABDUCTIONS,
NOT JUST HERE.

IN RUSSIA, MEXICO,
ALL OVER.

GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS,
SCIENTISTS

OR WESTERNERS
WITH GREAT WEALTH.

MOSTLY PERPETRATED
BY ORGANIZED CRIME

OR REVOLUTIONARY GROUPS
TRYING TO EXTORT MEDICINES.

THE CHINESE DON'T NEGOTIATE
WITH KIDNAPPERS.

IT WASN'T UP TO US.

WE'VE GOT A LIMITED SUPPLY,
JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

LEONORA!

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!

Dennis: BLOOD RESULTS CAME BACK,
MR. KRUMWIEDE.

YOU NEVER HAD THE VIRUS.

YOU HAVE NO ANTIBODIES.
YOU LIED.

OF COURSE
THAT'S WHAT YOUR LABS SAY.

FORSYTHIA IS A LIE.

IT'S A LIE AND YOU MADE
FOUR AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS

FOR TELLING IT.

YOU WANT TO BLOG
ABOUT THAT?

YOU ARE GOING TO GO AWAY,
MR. KRUMWIEDE,

AND SO IS ALL YOUR MONEY.

HELL, I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE
ALL THE CIVIL SUITS

PEOPLE ARE GOING TO FILE
AGAINST YOU,

AND I HAVE
A PRETTY GOOD IMAGINATION.

AND NOW YOU WANT TO TELL PEOPLE
NOT TO GET VACCINATED,

WHEN THAT'S THE BEST CHANCE
THEY'VE GOT.

IF I COULD THROW
YOUR COMPUTER IN JAIL, I WOULD.

ARE WE DONE HERE?

EVIDENTLY THERE ARE
12 MILLION OTHER PEOPLE
AS CRAZY AS YOU ARE.

YOU MADE BAIL.
CONGRATULATIONS.

CHEEVER AND WIFE.

CONGRATULATE AUBREY
FOR ME.

I'D SHAKE YOUR HAND, BUT I DON'T
WANT TO SET A BAD EXAMPLE.

UM, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
AN OFFICIAL WEDDING RECEPTION

WHEN WE CAN GET EVERYBODY
TOGETHER IN ONE PLACE,

AND WE REALLY HOPE
YOU CAN BE WITH US.

SURE.

SO ARE YOU READY FOR YOURS?
I'VE GOT MINE.

NO, I THINK, UH, SHE'S GOING TO
WANT TO DO THESE TOGETHER.

I KNOW SHE SPRANG
FOR SOME CHAMPAGNE.

MM.

THEY HAVE SCHEDULED
THE HEARINGS.

WE'LL BOTH BE EXPECTED
TO TESTIFY.

RIGHT.

GOOD LUCK.

HEAD BACK,
ANTHONY.

GOOD JOB.

I CAN'T GIVE HIM
THE BRACELET, BUT...

AT LEAST YOU KNOW
HE'LL BE SAFE.

YEAH, BEATS WAITING
ANOTHER SEVEN MONTHS.

OKAY,
WHAT DO YOU SAY?

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME,
ANTHONY.

YOU KNOW WHERE THIS COMES FROM,
SHAKING HANDS?

NO.

WELL, IT WAS A WAY
OF SHOWING A STRANGER

THAT YOU WEREN'T CARRYING
A WEAPON IN THE OLD DAYS.

GOOD JOB. NOW GO FINISH
YOUR HOMEWORK, HUH?

OKAY.

YOU OFFERED
YOUR EMPTY RIGHT HAND

TO SHOW
THAT YOU MEANT NO HARM.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.

I WONDER
IF THE VIRUS DOES.

UH, DR. CHEEVER,
THANKS.

TAKE CARE, ROGER.

Aubrey: YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET
IN TROUBLE FOR THIS, ARE YOU?

Ellis:
WILL YOU BE QUIET?

MY NUMBER IS 287,
ELLIS.

IF WE'RE NOT MARRIED,
I'D HAVE TO WAIT ALMOST A YEAR.

THEN IT'S A GOOD THING
WE'RE MARRIED.

HOLD YOUR HEAD BACK,
PLEASE.

I JUST DON'T WANT TO GIVE THEM
ANOTHER REASON TO GO AFTER YOU.

WILL YOU PLEASE BE QUIET?
AND HOLD YOUR HEAD BACK.

OKAY. GO.

AND... GO.

ALL RIGHT.

LIKE YOU SAID, BABY...

JUST, UH, TAKING CARE OF
EVERYBODY THAT'S IN MY LIFEBOAT.
