Research conducted in the labs at CDC headquarters in Atlanta reveals their new monkey test subjects are suffering from a never before seen virus which they name Human Viral Zoonosis
HVZ is inadvertently carried out of the lab by researchers who were unknowingly contaminated.
Travelers carrying Human Viral Zoonosis spread it across America.
Infected passengers aboard an airline flight to Germany carry HVZ to Europe.
Scientists find that Human Viral Zoonosis is a highly infectious virus that is able to take control of it's hosts body in order to help it find new hosts. While the virus appears only be able to take control of the rhesus monkey scientist believe that humans could act as carriers of the virus.
Reports flood in from across the world that people have begun attacking one another in the streets. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention states that they believe these events are linked to Human Viral Zoonosis. It is believed that HVZ has begun evolving to take control of human hosts.
President Shepard declares a nation wide state of emergency and imposes martial law for the entire country. The Government also enacts CONPLAN-8888, stating that although it was originally created as a training exercise they believe it is currently their most applicable contingency plan.
As hundreds of thousands are infected by Human Viral Zoonosis in just a mater of days, the United States Government orders the evacuation of all metropolitan areas with a population density greater than 3,000 people per square mile.
In a statement today the White House says that they estimate that over 100 million people have been infected by HVZ in the US. Meaning that around 1 in 3 Americans are now infected.
As infect rates continue to rise the national guard is unable to maintain order in most of the remaining larger cities and most people begin to lose access to government aid, leaving millions without a reliable source of food and water.
Executive Order 13295 requires all citizens with scientific training or lab experience to report to the Centers for Disease Control to help in the search for a cure.
As Washington DC becomes harder and harder to keep secure the decision is made to evacuate all high ranking government officials from the area. The location of President Andrew Shepard is not publicly released.
Wakefield Science Center is overrun by infected, releasing several experimentally mutated zombies into the surrounding areas.
