If protocol has been followed, you should have an e-mail and audio logs from the lead researcher on the project. In this they have outlined information for 3 categories:

Cause

Research

Symptoms

Identify the relevant information for each of the three categories in the communications we have recieved.

To ensure total certainty, there are other groups working on this task too.

Report your findings to the rest of the teams to compare information.

BE READY IN 30 MINS

# data[].attributes.body
You are now in receipt of vital information which will help in the containment of the situation. Let the government know. Create a report for them. It must include the following:
• A brief outline of the situation
• Symptoms and causes – the effects these will have
• Potential outcome – what will happen if this is not contained?
• Possible solution – how is this best managed?

REMEMBER: Consult the DSO Style Guide for help with the layout of the report.

A situation like this cannot be kept secret for long, the general public will soon find out something is very wrong. Your next set of tasks is focused on managing the public’s information on the outbreak. What information you share and how you share it will have a huge impact on safety.

# data[].attributes.body
The public will consume the information you have found in a very different manner to the government. Produce a video (see Flipgrid tile below) and 1 of the following:

Poster

Leaflet

Article

# data[].attributes.body
You must communicate the following key information:

What has happened

Symptoms to look out for

What to do if you think you are infected

What to do if you think someone else is infected

Info. on MedEvac Zones

General safety tips

Listen to the audio logs and piece together what's happened.

You are a reporter at a small national newspaper. The newspaper is known for following the stories no-one else will. All of your time has been taken with covering the Strain Z outbreak. You have hardly slept or eaten, nevermind had time to shower. There is so much to cover and resources a limited.
Working late you hear footsteps outside your office. No-one comes in, but when you walk to the door, there has been an envelop pushed under. It's addressed to you.
OPEN IT.

Working with the leading specialists at DSO, you have to predict the growth of the infection.

# data[].attributes.body
Strain Z is in the general population.   We need to predict how quickly this will spread.

On Day One of the outbreak, Patient X was the carrier; we know Strain Z is contageous. We have seen that they infected 2 other people.
These 2 others infected 2 more.

It would appear that each infected can infect only 2 new people.
The pattern of infection continues. People do not recover or become immune.

# data[].attributes.body
COMPLETE THE PREDICTION TABLE AND WORK OUT:

How many new people will be infected on day 14?

After how many days will more than 1 000 000 people in total be infected?

The 2015 census totalled the UK population at 65 million.

How long is it going to take for everyone in the UK to become infected?

# data[].attributes.body
From the information you have provided, it's been decided that preparation of large camps to house people who are fleeing the outbreak is needed.
You need to plan these MedEvac Zones using the DSO MedEvac Zones Guide provided.

# data[].attributes.body
The Guide provides all the information you will need to plan your Zone.  Once you have decided on how your Zone will be layed out, create the plan on the Base Grid along with the full cost of your design.

# data[].attributes.body
You will need to be able to explain why you have planned your Zone, giving reasons for its layout and the strcutures you have chosen.
