Lab Notes

"Dr. Dionne put one of her own blood samples through the mass spec on negative space mode today, on a whim. What she found got all of us going. Turns out we're all infected with XE037. We've quarantined the lab until we can find out how protocol was breached. Every one of us can't stop thinking about what happened to Hendelson's mouse. How did Melchior miss this? God help us."

Subject T3D has succumbed to radiation poisoning, but not before undergoing several more physiological mutations. Dr. Holstein is suggesting these may be an attempt by XE037 to adapt its host to an unknown stimulus. Dr. Dionne says that's completely unfounded. They got into a rousing twenty minute debate at the update meeting.

We contacted colleagues at XEDRA-40 via Melchior. They ran their blood too, and got the same result we did. They're initiating quarantine protocol as well, but now the word is out and Melchior is getting everyone to run a similar protocol. Dr. Dionne thinks it's probably too late: we've got a full scale containment breach on our hands. How did this happen? We're backtracing, but we've been beyond paranoid with our protocols, it's not like we're dealing with butterscotch pudding here.

Dr. Dionne's team has come up with an ambitious mutagenic cocktail, dubbed PE065. Though its effects are wildly polymorphic and unstable, to say the least, he believes that several such mutants could effectively check the spread of reanimated XE037 infectees. We are looking into implementation methodology.
