Prologue
NBC News:
Recent studies have shown this new outbreak to be dangerous. If not handled properly, it might even cause death, especially for those with ill heath. Here we have a Dr. Stevens with advise on how to keep yourself healthy.
Medical Report: The knewly discovered disease known as Homo Spongiform Encephalopathy is DEADLY. Once contaminated, the chances of survival of the patient are zero.
Washington Post
Recent reports are claiming that the new HSE disease is a strain of the Bovine Spongiform Ecephalopathy, otherwise known as Mad Cow Disease. As far as it can be established, the disease is contagious at any stage of its gestation period. We suggest washing your hands and wiping down anything that might have had contact with beef. Avoid eating anything that might have come from a cow. Experts say it is impossible to figure out if this disease has come from the current livestock, or if it is something else entirely, but they suggest avoiding any beef products, just to be safe.
Medical Report: The HSE virus is HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS. The virus is primarily an airborn contagion and can travel quickly in a small amount of time. Results show that a patient can infect up to 25 or even 50 other specimens in the space of a week. It is estimated that less than a third of the population is immune to the airborn strain.
Fox News:
We've received reports saying HSE is contagious. Infection is wide spread and growing. We are urging people to stay inside and to not come into contact with anyone that is known to be infected.
Public Announcement: All schools are to be CLOSED in order to keep contact with others, and chances of infection by the HSE virus, to an absolute minimum. It is indefinite as to when they will be reopened.
BBC News:
We have reports concerning victims of the HSE virus who were originally reported as dead. People are are claiming that the victims are coming back to life. Doctors have identified the reason behind this unexpected event to be a coma-like state brought on by the virus that closely mimics death. Most people are mistaking this coma stage of the virus for death. Not all are known to survive this coma; some are known to succumb to fever or the infection. But if they do survive, you can look forward to seeing your loved ones up and walking again. Most are calling it a miracle.
Medical Report: After close observation, we have found that patients who have survived the coma state of the HSE virus not only seem to have very little brain function left, but additionally, they often tend to become violent, frequently attacking and attempting to bite other people.
The Guardian
We've received reliable reports that though a percentage of the population is known to be immune to the airborn virus known as HSE, if someone were to be bitten—yes, that's right, bitten—by someone infected with the HSE virus, then they will become infected. There is no immunity from a direct bite from someone that has been infected.
Medical Report: Infected patients are becoming increasingly violent. A nurse has been KILLED by an infected patient.
CNN News:
Avoid any contact with anyone infected with the HSE virus, otherwise known as the "zombie virus" at all costs. There are reports claiming that those who have been infected are becoming violent, with attempts to bite and scratch others. We received information saying that some have even killed others. The virus is spreading with no hope for an effective cure. What is important is that widespread panic is kept at bay in such a time as this.
