It was inevitable that it would come to this. Given the rapid increase in human population and the disparate living conditions present throughout rural communities across the planet, viral pathogens will only propagate and increase as time goes on. Ever since the domestication of livestock, we opened the door to potential emergent novel viruses. I, along with my fellow epidemiologists and virologists, had been warning others about this risk for years. We knew it was coming and still no one heeded the alarms we were so adamantly ringing. It took a great wake-up call almost seven years ago for people to truly realize the incipient threat brought about by such a tiny menace. The cost of human life to learn this lesson is one of the biggest regrets of my scientific career. A daunting cytopathic process took place in our cells as our very bodies were destroyed by an extremely virulent new enemy. It took the world only a matter of years to realize that something needed to be done. Spearheaded by the brilliant doctor Dr. Jansson in 2024, the viral research laboratories started to take shape on six different continents.
Complex equipment is totally part of the job when you’re working on the worlds most dangerous viruses!

For the last three years, these privately funded facilities have been humanity’s bulwark and last bastion in the fight against our most prolific oppressor. Through years of painstaking research and collective global study, we have made strides in theoretical research that no single country ever could have accomplished on their own. Shared research in concert with some of the greatest minds on the globe has made this possible. The angel investors who have propagated this initiate should be proud of what we have accomplished and should be thanked for keeping the viral research laboratories independent of any outside governance. Along with the rewards of helping humanity, there are also risks. Some of the most dangerous specimens ever encountered by our species are safely stored inside the viral research laboratories. If one or any of these facilities were to fall into the wrong hands, the impacts that it would have on future generations could be beyond cataclysmic.
Sometimes you need to let off some steam when you’re faced with the end of the world.

I wish I could initiate this log update with a standard situation report, but all is not well. A mysterious death has occurred within the New Zealand Viral Research Laboratory. The emergency protocol has been initiated by the A.I. and we only have hours left to determine whether the fail-safe should be activated and all the facilities should be purged. This is the risk we all took when we were assigned to these posts. It is time now for the six heads of the viral research laboratories to digitally conference and determine the fate of future research and potentially the fate of everyone on Earth.
Doctors working with deadly viruses always take their jobs seriously.
