Great Success

With the samples brought back to me last night, I will be able to do several things to help you out. In addition to the data I am gathering on my assistant, the information you have been bringing me with the BFG has proven quite useful, and I now believe I can improve on the BFG even more. With this upgrade, it will no longer matter which infected you tag. While it still has a significant recharge rate, you will now have the ability to use it on any one infected of your choosing per day, incapacitating them for an hour. I have made the modifications, but they will not have any affect until you attach a new firing mechanism, which I have the location of.
I have also been continuing the research I had started on a vaccine. After seeing what happened to my assistant, I now know that the problem was partly because I gave it too her after she had been exposed to the virus, I am almost certain that with my new research data, I can produce a vaccine for you that will provide a one time immunity from exposure. The Amount of material I have to work with is much greater thanks to you finding all three of the samples I located, and thus, the amount of vaccines I can produce is increased as well. It will take me some time to finish the preparations neccasary to produce the vaccine, about a day, at most, but in the mean time, I have another reward for your efforts.
I have found files from Captain Carter, referencing a series of supply caches. The file mentions five different caches, but it only gives the location of two. It is suggested that the locations of the other caches can be found at the two named locations. Each location is supposed to have a different assortment of supplies, all of which I am sure will come in handy. The file mentions three things that make this seem like a worthwhile venture. The first is a mention to an ANGELS decoding device, which should enable access to many places in the future. The second is the firing mechanism needed to creat the BFG Mark II. If you find it, it should be easy to assmeble it. The third is simply marked in the file as "Heavy Munitions". I am certain all of these things will come in very handy in the days to come. I'll send you the locations I know of soon. Go get supplied, and I'll continue on my work with the vaccine. I should have it all but ready by tomorrow.

Unexpected Results

It appears that my assistant was brought into my lab just in time. The experimental vaccine has proven a failure, but with several unforeseen side effects. While her body has indeed become infected, the vaccine seems to have somehow have affected the virus, changing it. She seems to have maintained her mental capacities to a greater extent than any other infected I have encountered. She lacks the violent nature found in those infected with H1Z1, but still possesses the physical changes brought on by the virus. As of now, it is unclear whether she is capable of passing on the virus to others, but at this time it does not appear that she is able to. Most subjects maintain the knowledge they possessed before their contamination, but are not able to gain any more after the virus is fully metabolized. My assistant, whose special condition I have named the Amalgam Process, seems to have maintained the ability to learn after her infection. This is a frightening concept, knowing what it could mean if the infected could all become this way. For this reason, along with my desire to continue studying the Amalgam Process, I have placed my assistant in a high powered holding unit. With the amount of energy it takes to run the unit, nothing could get in or out without my permission.
