The CDC calls it H7D3, and it spreads like wildfire. The virus combines the worst symptoms of Rabies and the common Flu, and is suspected to be man-made. The first reports of feral, cannibalistic \"zombie-like\" symptoms were met with disbelief and skeptical amusement, but nobody's laughing now. Scientists, backed by the world's governments and its wealthiest institutions, race against the clock to develop a cure as infections rise and cities fall. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A glimmer of hope appears as a vaccine is discovered, but its production requires harvesting the spinal tissue of the infected, a grim task that tests the limits of human morality.
