Liu Jie's family is just a microcosm of today's events. They suddenly encountered a sudden emergency of infectious bacteria, and such a large-scale and widespread outbreak occurred on the same day. Not only did the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention instantly alarm, but the White House was also alarmed accordingly.

The black president issued an order overnight and immediately asked all departments to cooperate with the Centers for Disease Control to respond to the epidemic. By 10 o'clock in the evening in Los Angeles, the number of infected people hospitalized exceeded 12,546! The number of people temporarily quarantined reached 65,879!

In one day, the number of people in the outbreak exceeded so many. The Centers for Disease Control was operating at full capacity and mobilized the police and related departments to cooperate, and then managed to control the situation. Otherwise, just the mandatory quarantine of people would bring down the house.

…

…

) 15, The White House, Washington, USA.

A winter snowfall started at six o'clock in the morning, and it has not yet ended until it is close to midnight at night. The sudden and severe snowfall covered many places on the streets of Washington into a vast expanse of white. Even the cars parked on the street were not immune. At most, they turned into a large snowdrift that was easy to recognize.

"Huhuhu..."

The cold wind carried snowflakes and passed by, making those who stepped out of the car shiver.

"Damn..."

As much as he hates the snow, he hates today's emergency!

Several black utility vehicles also opened their doors, and several bodyguards in black uniforms filed out, surrounded by several doctors, and entered the White House grounds.

Before they even stepped into the White House, the group saw from a distance several receptionists waiting for them in front of the gate.

"Dr. Osder, Dr. Shanla, Mr. President is already waiting for you inside."

Lead the way. The group of people went straight to the Oval Office. Obama and Barack frowned, lying on the sofa with his head down reading a document, without even noticing that the group of people walked in.

The staff member walked over and whispered something, which made Barack raise his head and notice the group of people.

"Welcome Doctors. Please take a seat."

"Hello, Mr. President."

After exchanging a few words, Barack stopped paying attention to etiquette and quickly got to the point without any nonsense.

"About this epidemic, yes, two doctors, what is going on? Why today...I mean, today is not April Fools' Day."

"I'm sorry, Mr. President, about the ndm-eh involved in this epidemic. In fact, the WHO had already reported it just a few days ago, but I'm sorry that we didn't pay attention to it."

"Is it true that as this document says, the incubation period has passed, so there is a collective outbreak?"

Barack threw the document on the table and asked seriously.

"In fact, Mr. President. It could be much worse."

Osder took the tablet handed to him by the person behind him and handed it to the president. Let him see clearly the map display dyed red on the screen.

"This is the statistics as of an hour ago. Mr. President, you should have noticed that the epidemic has almost spread to all major cities on the West Coast and East Coast. What does this mean?"

"I thought it must be bad."

Barack held his forehead, having a severe headache.

"It's really bad. Today's outbreak is not the peak. According to the test data just sent by the WHO, the incubation period of ndm-eh may be as long as ten days. During the incubation window period, although it can be detected through blood tests. But it is also It will take more than 24 hours, which means we must consider the worst outcome, which is very likely..."

Osder was silent after what he said, but Dr. Shanla next to him took over: "It is very likely that the number of infected people in the United States will now exceed one million."

As soon as these words came out, the other people in the office who participated in the meeting, including the Secretary of State, Vice President, Secretary of Homeland Security and other senior officials, couldn't help but change their faces slightly. This is not an ordinary minor disease, but a terrible disease with an almost 100% mortality rate after infection.

Taking a deep breath, Barack's darker skin seemed to have a slight blush. He took a breath and asked, "So, is there really no good news here?"

"There is still good news."

Osder considered: "From the current point of view, the source of ndm-eh is not the United States, but most likely Thailand and other places. Through airplanes and other means of transportation, the germs have spread to all parts of the world. Here is a European Disease Prevention According to the news from the control center, large-scale epidemics have broken out in the UK, Germany, France and other places today, and the total number of people may exceed 16,000."

"From Thailand?"

Barack frowned: "Let me guess, the source of this news must not be from our hometown?"

"Ahem..."

Osder smiled awkwardly, and Shanla said: "Yes, Mr. President, this news comes from the Singapore Center for Disease Control. After they earlier discovered infected Thai tourists in the country, they teamed up with Thailand to track the source and found Maybe it came from a village somewhere in Thailand. Sorry, gentlemen, not only did they make a mistake, we also have an unshirkable responsibility. We thought that ndm-eh would be like the previous superbugs, only a few infections would appear in a few places. For example, there is no possibility of widespread epidemic... This is indeed a serious mistake on our part."

"Then two doctors."

The vice president on the sofa on one side asked: "Now is not the time to shirk responsibility and take responsibility. What solutions are most important?"

This simple sentence immediately caused the two doctors to fall into strange silence. They looked at each other, and then Shanla said with difficulty: "Unfortunately, this kind of ndm-eh is harmful to almost all, no, all Antibiotics are resistant and we have no way to treat patients with antibiotics."

"You mean..." The Vice President focused his gaze on Shanla: "There is nothing we can do about it?"

"Yes, at least for now."

Shanla didn't want to admit it so willingly, but it was indeed the case.

"Okay, gentlemen, even our powerful United States can't do anything about it? I think this is absolutely impossible!"

The silence of everyone in the office was forcibly interrupted by Barack. He stood up confidently: "We can't lose confidence now. Have you forgotten? This is not the only difficulty the United States has encountered. It was able to successfully overcome it before, and now Isn’t that okay?”

After a little bit of confidence in everyone, Barack immediately made arrangements.

First, the first step is to integrate information and establish an emergency epidemic response team. The Vice President takes command personally and reports directly to him on all matters.

Second, immediately issue an alert to other countries and request the WHO to immediately raise the ndm-eh safety level to the highest level six, warning countries around the world.

Third, report to Congress to activate the emergency bill, mobilize the National Guard, and cooperate with the Centers for Disease Control to implement mandatory quarantine measures. Family members and personnel who have come into contact with the patient should be registered and put into unconditional isolation.

Fourth, prepare a press release. Barack will immediately speak to the people on major TV stations the next day.

The usually bloated U.S. government still carried out emergency plans in the shortest possible time when encountering such serious emergencies.

but. No one could predict the severity of the storm, seeing the strong winds blowing on the eve of the storm. If you mistakenly think that this is a storm, you will be so careless that the real storm that follows will surprise anyone.

…

…

The meeting at the White House continued, thousands of miles away in the city of Los Angeles, on the cold streets at night. There was not a car or a person in sight. Under the lone light, a stray dog ​​exhaled a breath of white breath and licked its fur.

So hungry!

Stray dogs do not have complex thoughts and thinking. But simple hunger made it understand from the physical level that it needed to eat!

According to past experience, as long as it runs through this quiet street, it can come to a garbage dump with plenty of food and find the dinner it needs tonight.

"Woof woof..."

After running a few steps forward like a joy, the stray dog's ears suddenly twitched and he heard the sound coming from behind. He quickly left the center of the street and hid under the foot of a car.

Crouching under the car, a pair of dog eyes looked out. Behind the quiet street, three black multi-purpose SUVs sped past, making the stray dogs tremble with the roaring sound they brought.

After the three multi-purpose SUVs left and disappeared, the stray dog ​​dared to climb out from under the car and continue running towards its previous target.

…

Three black SUVs drove onto the viaduct and drove forward along the road. Not long after, the three vehicles quickly drove off the viaduct and came to a community, stopping neatly in front of a house.

"laugh……"

The wheels stopped, the door opened, and five people wearing full biochemical protective suits got out of the SUV, came to the door of the villa, and pressed the doorbell.

After waiting for a while, someone came over and asked, "Who is it?" but did not open the door directly.

"Madam, are you Dr. Best's wife?"

"...I am, who are you?"

"Sorry to disturb you so late. We are employees of Dr. Best's company and have been ordered to pick you up. I think Dr. Best has contacted you?"

"Are you... from Andres?"

The door was finally opened, and a blond woman and a little girl of eight or nine years old were standing in front of the door looking at them.

Perhaps because her current image was a little scary, the blonde woman took a few steps back, a little hesitant.

"Yes ma'am, we are Andres' staff, please reach out."

The leader held a silver-white metal object close to the skin of the woman's arm. He pressed it lightly, and a stinging pain came, making the woman scream.

"Ma'am, and your index finger."

Grabbing the woman's finger and pressing it on the collector, the red light on the instrument immediately turned to green.

"The blood sample has been collected, the fingerprint verification has been passed, and the identity has been confirmed to be Katie Yates."

A person in protective clothing behind the leader looked down at the tablet in his hand. The woman's photos and information were rapidly flashing across the display. (To be continued...)
