Liu Jie's family is just a microcosm of today's events, suddenly encountered a sudden and urgent infectious bacteria, and such a large-scale and large-scale outbreak occurred on the same day, which not only instantly alarmed the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, but also the White House.

The black president issued an order overnight, immediately asking all departments to cooperate with the disease control center and do a good job in dealing with the epidemic. By 10 o'clock in the evening in Los Angeles, the number of infected people admitted to the hospital had exceeded 12,546! The number of people in temporary quarantine reached 65,879!

In one day, with so many outbreaks, the CDC was already operating at full capacity, and the police and relevant departments were mobilized to cooperate, which barely managed to control the situation. Otherwise, the mandatory quarantine personnel alone will have to overturn the house.

……

……

11:15 PM, White House, Washington, USA.

A winter snowfall that began at six o'clock in the morning and is now close to the early hours of the night, and it has not yet ended. The sudden and sharp snowfall covered many parts of the streets of Washington in a white expanse, not even the cars parked on the streets, and at most it turned into a large and easily recognizable snowdrift.

"Huhuhu......"

The cold wind carried snowflakes and made those who stepped out of the car shiver.

"Damn ......"

Just as he hated the snowfall, he hated the emergency that happened today!

Several black function cars also opened the doors, and several bodyguards in black uniforms stepped into the White House land surrounded by several doctors.

Before they stepped into the White House, the group saw from a distance that several receptionists were already standing in front of the gate.

"Dr. Ossor, Dr. Sherra, Mr. President is already waiting for you inside."

Lead the way. The group went straight to the Oval Office, and Obama. Barack frowned, lying on the couch and looking down to read a text, not even noticing that the group walked in.

The staff walked over and whispered something before Barack looked up and noticed the group.

"Welcome two doctors. Have a seat. ”

"Hello, Mr. President."

After a few pleasantries, Barack stopped paying attention to etiquette, and stopped talking nonsense and quickly entered the topic.

"What the hell is going on with this pandemic, yes, two doctors? Why ...... Today I mean, it's not April Fool's Day. ”

"I'm sorry Mr. President, about the NDM-EH involved in this outbreak. In fact, the WHO notified it just a few days ago, but unfortunately we did not pay attention to it. ”

"Is it really like what this article says, the incubation period has passed, so there is a collective explosion?"

Barack threw Wen Jiàn onto the table, and Yan asked.

"Actually, Mr. President. The situation could be even worse. ”

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

"That's the statistic as of an hour ago, Mr. President, you should have noticed that the outbreak is almost all over the West Coast and the East Coast cities, and what does that mean?"

"I think it must be terrible."

Barack clutched his forehead, his head aching.

"It's really bad. Today's outbreak is not the peak, and according to the test data just sent by the WHO, the incubation period of NDM-EH may be as long as ten days, although it can be detected by blood tests. But it also takes more than 24 hours, which means that we have to think about the worst-case outcome, which is likely to ......"

Osder's words were silent, and Dr. Shanla, who was next to him, took over: "It is likely that the number of infected people in the United States will exceed one million now. ”

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people in the office who participated in the meeting, the secretary of state, the vice president, the secretary of homeland security, and other senior officials, couldn't help but change their faces slightly. This is not an ordinary small disease, but a terrible disease with an almost 100% mortality rate after infection.

Taking a deep breath, Barack's darker skin seemed to flush slightly, and he gasped and asked, "So, is there really no good news here?" ”

"There's still good news."

"From today's point of view, the source of NDM-EH is not in the United States, but most likely in Thailand and other places. Aircraft and other means of transport spread the germs around the world. Here's a copy of the news from the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and other places have also broken out in large-scale epidemics today, and the total number of people may exceed 16,000 people. ”

"From Thailand?"

Barack frowned: "I guess, the source of this news is definitely not from our homeland, right?" ”

"Ahem......"

Osde smiled awkwardly, and Shanla said: "Yes, Mr. President, this news comes from the Singapore Center for Disease Control and Control, after they found the infected Thai tourists in the territory earlier, they jointly traced the source with Thailand, and found that it may be from a village somewhere in Thailand. I'm sorry, gentlemen, not only did they make a mistake, but we also have an unshirkable responsibility, and we thought that NDM-EH would be like the previous superbugs, with only a few cases of infection in a few places, and there was no possibility of a widespread epidemic...... This is indeed our strict zhòng mistake. ”

"Then two doctors."

The vice president, who was on the couch, asked, "Now is not the time to shirk responsibility and take responsibility, what is the most important solution?" ”

This simple sentence immediately made the two doctors eerily silent, and after looking at each other, Shanla said with difficulty: "Unfortunately, this NDM-EH is resistant to almost all, no, all antibiotics, and we have no way to treat patients with antibiotics. ”

"You mean......" the vice president focused on Shanla, "what we can't do about it?" ”

"Yes, at least for now."

Shanla didn't want to admit it, but it was.

"Well, gentlemen, is there nothing even about our powerful United States? I don't think that's possible! ”

The silence of everyone in the office was forcibly interrupted by Barack, who stood up confidently: "You can't lose faith now. Have you forgotten jì? The difficulties encountered by the United States are not limited to this one, and it has been able to successfully overcome them before, but now it is not able to do so. ”

With a slight boost of confidence, Barack immediately made arrangements.

First, the first is to integrate information and set up an emergency response team. The Vice President was in command and reported directly to him.

Second, immediately alert the rest of the countries to the WHO to immediately raise the NDM-EH safety level to the highest level of six, warning countries around the world.

Third, it will be reported to Congress, activate the emergency bill, and at the same time mobilize the National Guard to cooperate with the Centers for Disease Control and Control to implement mandatory quarantine measures. Family members and personnel who come into contact with the sick person are registered and placed in unconditional isolation.

Fourth, prepare a press release, and the next day Barack will immediately address the people on major television stations.

The U.S. government, which is usually bloated, made an emergency plan in the shortest possible time when it encountered such a serious emergency.

But. No one could have predicted the severity of the storm, seeing the strong wind blowing on the eve of the storm. If you mistakenly think that this is a storm, then carelessly, the real storm that will follow will surprise anyone.

……

……

Meetings at the White House continued, thousands of miles away in the city of Los Angeles, on the icy streets at night. There was not a single car in sight left and right, no figure in sight, and under the lonely light, a stray dog exhaled a breath of white air and licked its fur.

I'm so hungry!

Stray dogs don't have complicated thoughts and minds. But simple hunger makes it understand from the physical level that it needs to eat!

As a rule of thumb, if it runs through this quiet street, it can come to a well-fed garbage heap and find the dinner it needs tonight.

"Woo ......"

Running a few steps forward like a joy, the stray dog suddenly twitched his ears, heard the sound from behind him, and hurriedly left the middle of the street and hid in the bottom of a car.

Squatting under the car, a pair of dog eyes looked out, behind the silent street, three pitch-black multi-purpose SUVs galloped by, bringing a whistling sound that made the stray dogs tremble.

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

……

Three black SUVs drove up the viaduct and along the road, and it wasn't long before the three cars quickly pulled off the viaduct again, came to a neighborhood, and stopped neatly in front of a house.

"Sneer......"

The wheels stopped, the door opened, and five people in full biohazard suits stepped 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?" "But it didn't open the door.

"Ma'am, are you Dr. Best's wife?"

“…… I am, who are you? ”

"I'm sorry to bother you so late, we are from Dr. Best's company, and we were ordered to pick you up, I think Dr. Best should contact you, right?"

"You are...... Andres's people? ”

The door finally opened, and a blonde woman and a little girl of eight or nine years old were standing in front of the door watching them.

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

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

The leader held a silver-white metal object, close to the skin of the woman's arm, and pressed it gently, and a tingling pain came, causing the woman to exclaim.

"Ma'am, and your index finger."

Grab the woman's finger and press it on the collector, and the red light on the instrument immediately turns green.

"The blood sample was taken, the fingerprint was verified, and the identity was determined to be Katie. Yates. ”

A person in protective clothing behind the leader looked down at the tablet in his hand, and the monitor on it was rapidly flashing the woman's photos and information. (To be continued......)
