A whole lot of Zombie draft cure planning.

Hey guys, Jon here.

Belle posted earlier a thread directed towards all medics/healers as a unified effort to work on a cure and prevent the spread of the disease. Since then, her, I, and a bunch of other people have come together to work on a sort of game plan for synthesizing the cure for the disease. I'd love for as many people to get in on this as possible, especially if that person plans on being infected, or is a medic working to combat the cure.

Update: All plot up until and including the proto-cure has been approved, however some special "conditions" will need to be met in order for the true cure to be made. We don't know what those conditions are yet, everything after the proto-cure will remain a lose skeleton structure until we have that information.

Once the infection begins on the 26th two teams will be organized. One team, presently composed of Daisy-023, Alia Shepard, Mordin Solus and Luke Skywalker will be clearing out and locking down the hospital. Mordin will be using the materials within to begin working on the cure. A second team (with no members as of writing) will work on securing the barracks to serve as a secondary base, should the hospital fall.

By the 28th, Mordin will have synthesized a vaccine that will slow the spread of the infection. It will be unable to outright prevent it, so precautions should still be taken. It will also have no effect on people already zombified, though those who are simply infected should be able to keep their sanity for at least a little while longer. This vaccine will be distributed during the evacuation, so even those going home have some medicine to make sure the disease does not spread to Luceti.

By the 29th a proto-cure will by created. This is directed at those already infected, and is delivered by a shot to the back of the skull. It will return higher cognitive function to the brain, but will not reverse the zombification process. As such, those treated with the proto-cure will be human brains trapped in a zombie body. This may be helpful, since the increased strength and speed, plus immunity to further infection will be invaluable on the battlefield, at least until the power cap comes into effect.

*With this, Mordin and company will be presented with a moral dilemma. Do they distribute the proto-cure as the cure, and use the new half-zombie allies in holding back the horde, or do they pour all of their effort into creating a true cure? This is going to be an active discussion with those within the hospital, including those subjects within who are already treated with the proto-cure (which we already have two volunteers, and would love to have more!) Anyone infected who would like to take the proto-cure are more than welcome to, but should be mentally fortified enough to handle the nightmare fuel of being stuck in a zombified state.

This same day, when news breaks of the Lone Survivor, volunteers from both the Hospital and Barracks teams will form a party in order to secure him and return him to the hospital (or barracks if the hospital is overrun). From there, the Lone Survivor will be treated as if he were a zombie, since it seems he may be the source of the outbreak.

On the 30th, Mordin (and any doctors who are helping him at this point) will work to separate antibodies from the survivor's blood. Should he also be the source, extra work will have to be taken in order to remove any of the disease-spreading pathogens. Once combined with the proto-cure, and given extra work, a full cure should be able to be processed. Then, should the survivor prove to be the source of the disease, he will be executed to prevent further spreading.

The full cure will then be presented on the 31st, just before the entire village is blown to hell. Then we can all go home happy, safe, and a bit more mentally disturbed.

For those of you who are friends with me on Plurk, I also have a discussion thread going on there right now. If you're not, I'd love you if you added me. We'd love to have more input on all this and make it work for everyone's plans.

If anyone else would like to be a part of this, especially being a part of the Barracks Team, the Rescue Team, or an infected volunteer, please let me know!
