Catastrophe

Last night something terrible happened. I had my assistant escorted to my main lab. While the escort was successful, my assistant made an error. She had forgotten a data log at the lab she had been working at that had some critical information. A team or captain Carter's men volunteered to take her back to retrieve the data, assuming that it would be safe after the escort team had cleared the path. However, before they had even left sight, an infected that had somehow been missed managed to get to close. My assistant was attacked before the captain's men could stop it. I had been working on a vaccine, and I had an experimental and as of yet untested sample on hand. I had no choice. I used it in an attempt to save her. Only time will tell if it worked. Until then, I need to place her in quarantine in one of my labs. Currently she is testing herself in another center, but someone will need to bring her in.
In addition, while I have still not accounted for all of the original samples of the virus, including the damaged ones, I have discovered at least three intact samples. If I had these samples, I would be able to do many more experiments. Unfortunately, in their current state, the samples are not suited for the experiments I have in mind. They will each need to be taken to a different lab, where another of my assistants will be able to quickly make the necessary preparations before bringing it to me.
There is some good news though, as the first trial of the Bio-Function Gauge was a success, and with the information gathered, I am certain I can make it even more effective.

Although I am both saddened and horrified with what happened to my assistant, I must admit that it is also an opportunity to see just how effective my prototype vaccine really is... It truly is fascinating.


My other assistants will have all of the information you'll need for the tasks at hand. They'll be in touch.
