Yourmaster: YOU ARE INFECTED and welcomed into secrets! The plot is rolling! Scheme against others with Guni.
Here's some background reading for you and results of what actually happened. Please do read it and consider if you want to change your action.
"Perhaps you should take the doctor next." The Mind says.
"Otherwise he may become a problem."Ensure all who have run a reasonable risk of being infected are quarantined. <snip/>
I have few questions. Probably should have asked earlier.
Who do you think have a reasonable risk of being infected? Give me some pointers.
What do you suspect they are infected with? Because you did vaccinate everybody against every harmful virus and bacterias you are aware of.
And what do you suspect being origin of this infection you all are afraid of and have really no proof about? Or am I forgetting something I said before?
The current suspicion list is everybody who's spent significant time near Guni without full environmental protection. What constitutes significant time is left to your discretion. As for what they're infected with and from where, I think there may have been a commensalistic bacteria or virus within the bird or dog, or there was an undiscovered bacteria or virus in the soil in the forest.
Generally I think people do not wear helmet inside the base even if they wear rest of the enviro-suit. Because why one would wear it inside where it is perfectly safe?
Alex didn't had contact with her, but he needs your attention anyways.
Guni visited György a little while ago but got bored and left almost immediately. But he's unconscious/sleeping. After all, he did stay up the whole night.
Like Dave said, he's been wearing suit all the time. He had contact with her only shortly, not really any significant time in my books.
Cromwell had hardly any contact.
I think Mark visited Guni once or twice in infirmary but it was under your supervision and only momentary. So he's free to go. I think.
Adam have not had any contact with Guni.
You... you have spent lots of time with her. So you should be locked up, but you are the doctor here and that's just silly.
So this really leaves only Guni.
Just so we have same understanding; commensal (seems to be proper term) relationship is where one party benefits, but other one does not benefit nor is harmed in any meaningful degree.
As for undiscoverd bacterias/viruses, yeah, that's possible.
"You may have been wearing it at all times, but not everyone else has.
I don't want to drag this out any more than the rest of you do, believe me.
I want everyone to be systematically examined for injuries, have their blood taken, be decontaminated, have their suit checked, and then make sure it is properly attached.
Once we get all that done, then I'll allow people to resume their schedules, with their suits on.
I know it may seem like a bit much, but I'd rather be paranoid then naive."
Order people to do as said, and take part in checking suits for any signs of damage.
Inspecting peoples suits reveals that they all are in perfect condition. Except the one Guni wore yesterday. It was shredded in pieces thanks to our doctor. Mark inspected the helmet and left it somewhere in the labs without even reporting to you.
Ensure all who have run a reasonable risk of being infected are quarantined. Ensure that the AI is set to properly care for those quarantined. Put on the suit and release myself from quarantine. Put on proper safety wear, and begin testing everybody according to Cromwell's specifications.
Guni is reasonably guarantined. The infirmary always takes good care of its patients, you know, even those who show hostility towards you, but in quite different way.
The enviro-suit does count as proper safety gear, but indeed it doesn't really radiate sense of medical professionalism. You slip into
more professional one. Pick your poison.
Tests:
György Géza: No injuries. His blood seems to be slowly clotting in small veins and there's traces of antigens not usually found in his blood type.
Alex Raman: Neck bleeding, spreading necrosis in neck. Needs immediate attention.
BAQ-3 found in blood (It is the harmless one). Foreign cells found in blood.
Guni Debres: No new injuries, only old ones: bruised thights and small burn mark in neck.
BAQ-3 found in blood.
Dave D. Davidson: No injuries. No abnormalities in blood.
Cromwell Jackson: No injuries. No abnormalities in blood.
Mark Redtail: No injuries. No abnormalities in blood.
Adam Tom: No injuries. No abnormalities in blood.
You: No injuries. No abnormalities in blood.
"Can I leave? I haven't had any contact with the infected without an airtight suit on and I have a job to do."
On coms to security"We may of gone a bit over board with the health scare"
Leave isolation, get washed off to insure isolation is maintained. Then get a glider and go patrolling as a way to just get away from the craziness at base
Yeah, there's a bit of hysteria up in the air. You leave after being inspected. Showers are a little spartan in space but you take your time to scrub yourself completely clean. And just to be sure you also ditch your current enviro-suit and get a new one.
It's prefect weather for flying, beautiful blue sky and no clouds visible. This gives you a moment of freedom and time to think what's going on. Perhaps Theron was right, people are going a bit nuts.
"May I inquire as to the reason for locking me up? I've been wearing my suit non-stop since we landed."
You are liberated due your diligent manner of wearing enviro-suit all the time. And after being tested. Your pet project is now size of newborn puppy.
If quarantined:Be healthy.
If not:Patrol outside.
You are very healthy. Why would you be anything else?
Anyway, weather is great outside so you go patrolling. Nothing much out there to shoot, some little birds in distance and bugs in ground.
Try to find a mirror in the infirmary.
Unfortunately the infirmary straps you tightly into the bed for surgical removal of dying tissue. It also tells you really shouldn't look at it since that wound in your neck is really ugly. But if you really want to...

To: Biology Unit 2 Expedition leader Alex Raman
Subject: Requesting meeting
Message: Bring your head of security into meeting as well.
PS. Waiting your call.
Sit around.
Yeah, nothing much to do here. At least you still have your computer folded on your wrist.
Wake up.
You wake up in infirmary feeling quite crappy and dizzy. Lots of people here, wonder what's going on?
