♪ ♪

REPORTER: The MacArthur Causeway was the scene

of a bloody attack this morning

as horrified onlookers saw one homeless man attack another.

Police were forced to open fire on a naked man

who refused to stop chewing the face off of another.

Onlookers couldn't believe what they were seeing.

MAN: He just went berserk. I--

He was eating the face off another guy.

From here to here.

He didn't spit it out, either.

He was swallowing.

REPORTER: According to police, the attacker

was unfazed by the officers' commands to stop

and in fact turned and growled at them.

So the police opened fire.

Look, I didn't think zombies existed before today.

But this was a zombie attack.

CYNDI: This all happened.

Eight years ago. In Miami.

Everybody said it was a zombie attack.

But nobody barricaded their doors,

or packed their bags and headed for the hills.

Because this isn't a movie, this is reality.

People just keep moving on:

buying their groceries, paying their rent, living their lives.

Well, that was just one cannibal.

Wait until there's hundreds.

You don't remember this, but...

there were 30 more reports

of cannibalistic attacks in Florida that month.

Do you know why you don't remember?

Because they were homeless?

Because it was blamed on drugs.

Bath salts and Flakka.

People don't panic if they can understand the cause

and they think it's irrelevant to them.

So you're saying to avoid a panic now,

we need to blame something?

Something people aren't afraid of.

I mean, it is.

But I went to a COVID party last night...

You-- I'm s-- You what?

Okay, I can't be scolded. I don't react well to scolding.

So my friend told me about this COVID party,

and it's a way to stop wearing masks.

We can get the COVID antibodies by getting a small infection.

-Oh, my God. -I've lost my sense of taste.

Which is fine. It keeps me from snacking.

But my teeth. They're a bit yellow. Look.

Wait, what was that?

-What? -Your teeth.

You just snapped them.

So?

Why are you doing that?

Oh, I just had cheesecake and spit it out.

-W-Why? -I didn't want to absorb the calories.

So how do I know if I have the antibodies, Doctor?

Olivia, what-what happened at this COVID party?

There was this guy in this big chair--

a Tommy H model with COVID.

So we hugged him. And then we had sangria.

-Did anybody bite you? -Bite me?

What do you mean? Like, really bite me?

-Yeah. -No. Oh, but there was

this one guy in the bathroom-- an ex-boyfriend--

Yeah-- Okay. Olivia, were there any, uh,

ill effects from that?

Uh, did this guy...

O-Olivia, I need you to do me a favor.

All right? I need you to look down at your genitalia

W-What am I looking for?

Um, any skin discoloration.

AUTOMATED VOICE: CDC Epidemiology call 356-7.

Please state your name, position and last SSBI-PR.

Cyndi Estereo.

White House medical liaison, January 2019.

Dr. Zachary Deraux, CDC medical spokesperson, November 2018.

(printer whirring)

Your call will commence in ten seconds.

Be careful about seeming crazy.

That's always good advice.

LISA: CDC Epidemiology working group 356-7.

Good afternoon.

I'm Deputy Surgeon General Lisa Quinto.

Vice-Admiral Jerome

has asked me to brief the epidemiology team

on recent developments in our ongoing COVID battle.

-Colonel Ivory. -LANDON: Doctors at Fort Wood Warrior Unit

have studied the attacker

in the recent footage from Lake of the Ozarks,

and we believe that there is a new virulent strain of COVID

which is transferred through saliva and infected bites.

-LASZLO: What the hell? -LISA: Dr. Sweet, please hold your comments.

But it sounds like you're saying we have zombies.

No, sir. Zombies do not exist.

We have infected people who show violent

and cannibalistic tendencies.

-And who have no blood pressure. -LISA: We're working on a term

to take the fear out of it.

The White House would like us to balance the needs

of the economy with science.

-Charlie. -CHARLES: We're suggesting calling the infection

-"COVID Lite." -COVID Lite?

We're also looking at other alternatives.

SARS, for example, has more positive connotations than COVID

because the S sound is more pleasing to the ear.

So we are looking at "Sun."

"Sun-9."

Sun-9? What is that?

-It's the new name for COVID Lite. -LASZLO: But what is it?

-And why is it nine? -Because it sounds like less

-than 19. -LISA: Dr. Sweet,

we've only had one outbreak,

and it was away from any major population.

That's why we are trying to prevent a panic.

Uh, we've had another outbreak in New York.

What are you talking about?

My wife, she's got two patients on the Upper East Side.

They were bitten and they turned into... uh, Sun-9s.

-You have evidence of this? -I do. Video and photo.

This is what the bite looks like.

LANDON: We should send field operatives to their address.

Can you get it for us?

-Yes, Colonel. -LISA: Okay.

Uh, one second.

Let's not recalibrate until this report proves accurate.

The key is to prevent a panic.

A smaller group has been discussing ways to do that.

We've been looking into an outbreak from 2012,

and we believe the surest path is to blame

a specific and isolated cause.

-Like drugs? -Perhaps.

-But not necessarily. -LISA: We'll meet back here

to discuss what you find, Colonel.

And I hope I don't need to warn everyone,

this is TS-5 confidential.

Well, you didn't sound crazy.

430 East 95th Street, Apartment 6B.

-Are you sending somebody there? -Uh, yes, two CDC field ops.

Tell them to be careful.

-What's going on, Zach? -Nothing, nothing,

we're just, uh, dotting our COVID i's.

-What does that even mean? -I tried to bring up

your evidence of a new strain, but the powers that be,

-they want to see more. -Do they have evidence

-of another outbreak somewhere? -No,

they just want to see more evidence.

Zach, I have other patients

that may develop these problems.

I... If there's something I should know, please tell me.

No, there's nothing.

-You're sure? -Yes.

It's like when we went waterskiing last year.

Remember, we were both so worried?

It's like that. There's no reason to worry.

Okay, that's comforting.

Thanks.

Okay.

What was that about waterskiing?

Oh, we, uh, we were on vacation in Lake Tahoe,

and we both had this fear that we blew out of proportion.

(keys clicking)

What did that mean?

Oh, it's, it was a... it's a joke we had.

We were on a vacation in Lake Tahoe and, uh,

there was this water-ski instructor that kept calming us,

saying that we'd never, ever drown.

Until I almost drowned.

That doesn't sound good.

No.

You're okay, right?

-Still no bites. -(muffled music playing)

and start doing some contact tracing.

Lily.

This is very dangerous,

and we-we need to start contact tracing.

You just said that he left.

He could, he could be spreading this to someone else.

Look, I-I don't want to be in the middle of this.

-I don't. -There-there is no "this."

Lily, this is us.

All of us. All of us are in this.

I don't want any questions.

Is this about your job?

No. What do you mean? Why?

Well, I mean, the-the ball and gag.

I mean, d-don't worry about it.

The CDC does not care about minutia.

I am fine up here.

I'm fine.

Okay, um...

All right. Okay.

Y-You said that he gnawed off his hand?

Yes.

Did he take it with him?

ZACH: ...at the Lake of the Ozarks poolside bar.

After review, the CDC has concluded

that this was an isolated incident

having nothing to do with COVID.

REPORTER: There's reporting the assailant

acted like a zombie.

Does the CDC have any comment?

Our first comment is:

-zombies are fictional. -(laughter)

And our second comment is:

we've traced this minor infection to a food pathogen--

a norovirus isolated in one specific food source.

It's called Yo-Yo-Bay Shrimp.

It's an imported food product from Mexico.

-Is that true? -I... I-I don't know.

REPORTER: Doctor, you're saying what turned this person

into a cannibal was frozen shrimp?

Well, we are not ready to confirm

any cannibalistic attributes.

But we have designated

this new infection Sun-9.

Severe Ulcerative Norovirus

-number nine. -(reporters clamoring)

REPORTER: Dr. Deraux, so you're saying this is not related to COVID?

The White House supports the CDC's findings,

and we want the public to know that the FDA has returned

all Yo-Yo-Bay frozen shrimp products back to Mexico.

And the most important thing is to not panic

and further delay the recovery

of our economy.

People want their lives back.

REPORTER 2: Doctors, one more question...

-(reporters clamoring) -A food pathogen?

No.

Uh-uh, I-I don't think so.

Do you think that shrimp could get put into other stuff,

you know, like a seafood salad, or...?

Why?

Just curious.

How long did it take for your patients to-to...

-change over? -What, to become violent?

Well, it varies.

I mean, Olivia was... was about 24 hours.

And it was the same with Miles.

But Petra, Petra changed immediately.

I think it must have something to do

with the-the severity of the bite,

and the-the viral load in the saliva.

-And how did they know they were sick? -Blood pressure drops.

Irritation in the jaw. Pale skin.

Protruding of the veins.

And then after they're sick?

They just become violent.

They use their teeth as a weapon,

as if they're trying to spread the virus.

-And you haven't seen anybody come back from it? -No.

Not yet.

Here they come.

(door closes)

-These are the CDC guys? -Yeah.

Oh, God, I hope they know what they're doing.
