Survivor

Preface

'This is Lisa Hillary reporting live for BBC news from downtown London, where biochemist and general practitioner of medicine Dr. George Granger claims to have found the cure for cancer. Having already tested his substance on animals the likes of rodents, small mammals and some species of primates, today Dr. Granger proudly announces the successful testing of the cure on a willing human candidate, Mrs Norah Clarks…'

'Police say the death of Mrs Norah Clarks, 65 year old widow, is being treated as suspicious due to her recent connection to the trials of new cancer 'cure', developed by biochemist Dr. George Granger…'

'Suspicions are being aroused within the British police force today as rioters have taken to the streets of downtown London. Seemingly, these people, mostly in their mid to late twenties and thirties, are out of control, enraged; major scientists claim that Mrs Norah Clarks, the woman recently found dead in her London home due to an accidental overdose of the drug she had been injected with by the biochemist Dr. George Granger, has somehow spread an airborne virus which kills it's victim instantly, only for said victim then to come back to life, filled with blind, cannibalistic anger…'

'..This infection, having now earned itself the nickname 'The Rage Virus', is causing widespread panic in the streets of London. Police say that there is no need for such confusion – the rioters and others suspected to fall prey to the infection are being carefully quarantined and chemists are searching desperately for the cure…

'..And whilst you are being instructed not to panic, it would be safest for all in the vicinity of London and the surrounding country to stock up on food and water and barricade your homes…

'Police say an evacuation of the country is imminent – the infection is quickly taking hold of England and now even the British police force fear that there is not much can be done about controlling it…Whilst the disease is no longer suspected to be airborne, it can be passed on through contact with an infected individual, and we urge you to stay away from all those suspected of carrying the disease until police give further notice…'

'We strongly advise you to pack as much food and water as you can into your cars and head straight for your nearest airport – free flights are being arranged every five hours to France, Spain, and Norway…'

'Get out of your houses as quickly as possible and head STRAIGHT FOR YOUR NEAREST AIRPORT…

'Run…'

'RUN!'
