A claim of a cure....

So a few days ago the people in the library I am staying in started talking about a man that says he has "a cure" for this plague or whatever you want to call it. He made thousands of fliers and was posting them all over the city. He claimed he was a doctor and had figured out a way to cure the living dead from their virus. Seeing many scams come and go I didn't think twice about it. Then people said that he was going to be at Wenonah Park at 2pm today. Where we are is relatively safe right now. The army or what's left of it here decided to fence in a small portion of the city. So being curious about this whole "cure" think I decided to watch from the top of the old mill end building. There seemed to be thousands that had gathered early in the morning to give whatever they had of value left as payment for a cure then they will hopefully see their loved one to stick it in them. At two he began his speech using every big medical word he could muster he explained how the "cure" worked. As proof he showed them his daughter who was badly scarred, bruised, and from the looks of it brain dead to say the least. She stared vacantly across the crowd fixed on some invisible force that wasn't there. He ended his schpeel and asked people to line up so that he may see each person individually for payment. As each person came up he would inspect what they had and turned them away if he did not find the things acceptable. People offered him money which at this point has no value, food, women, children, people were offering their children!!! For a cure that may not even work and even if it did how would they even find the person they were looking for to use it on. The man accepted things like a few cars, food (non perishables), rare toiletries like toilet paper or tooth paste; he even accepted a few dogs. As I panned my eyes through the crowd I noticed a man and a woman towing a cart with a large box on it. I was interested to see what was in it, being it was rather large. I figured it was some kind of payment. But what was it? As I pondered a cool breeze that for once smelled fresh and sweet blew throw my hair. I relished in the moment because the fresh breeze is not something often smelled around the city. I closed my eyes and imagined going swimming in the lake up north. My sweet dream was interrupted by the screams and panic of the people waiting below. I opened my eyes to see three children climb out of the box grabbing for the closest people they could get. I heard the man exclaim, "YOU HAVE TO HELP THEM!" The largest child who looked about 14 grabbed the woman by her hair. She pulled her down to the ground and began to feed on her. I reached for my rifle and aimed. I hit the girl in the shoulder sending her backward toppling over the stage. The two smaller children got a hold of the doctor and began to bite him. The army worked quickly and extinguished any threats. Upon closer inspection of the box there was also a small child who couldn’t have been more than 14 months old. Just before the doctor was shot he admitted that there was no cure. He was a real doctor and the girl with him was not his daughter. It was a patient at the hospital that had been in a horrible accident. She was blind and deaf because of it and left to die at the hospital. She was never infected and the shots he was giving people were various things that he found in the hospital. There were things like window cleaner, vitamins, saline, bleach, and apple juice. The good news the good doctor and the woman were the only ones infected. The man will be hung for harboring the infected, causing a public panic in which 50 were wounded due to the stampede, two counts of infection, and reckless exposure of infection to the public, which was carried out immediately. I couldn’t help but feel bad for him. He had lost all his children and his wife, but that was over shadowed by the fact that he was so desperate to cure them that he would risk thousands of survivor’s lives for people who were already dead…. I have little sympathy now these days.
Unfortunately because of this man we now will undergo a curfew and daily searches to make sure there are no more people housing the infected. I know many are complaining that their rights are being violated, this is not America anymore, we don’t have the same rights as we used to. There is only the government in which each colony lives under now. So far they have been fair. If living safely means that I have to undergo searches of the places I’m staying in then by all means… search my shit. I should hurry to post this because the electricity keeps going on and off.
