Mankind, Such a delicate kind. The same kind who seems to have forgotten, that they are at the mercy of mother nature, And how with a gentle squeeze, she can turn Man on themselves, and make it seem as hell has finally arrived.
Mankind has also some how forgotten how mother nature fuels their entire existence, despite them being energy sucking parasites to their host.. Earth.
It seems like Mankind is no longer being cradled in the arms of mother nature, Yet being eradicated by her.
As the infection spreads, several other nations begin taking their own protective measures. Israel abandons the Palestinian territories and initiates a nationwide quarantine, closing its borders to everyone except uninfected Jews and Palestinians. Its military then puts down an ultra-Orthodox uprising, which is later referred to as an Israeli civil war. The United States does little to prepare because it is overconfident in its ability to suppress any threat. Although special forces teams contain initial outbreaks, a widespread effort never starts: the nation is deprived of political will by "brushfire wars", and a widely distributed and marketed placebo vaccine creates a false sense of security.
As many more areas around the globe fall to infection, a period known as the "Great Panic" begins. Pakistan and Iran destroy each other in a nuclear war, after the Iranian government attempts to stem the flow of refugees fleeing through Pakistan into Iran.
Now the infected are in New York, your city. They are slaughtering hundreds by the minutes. When someone is bitten, in seconds they become a monster, and begin to attack others. Can you survive? Will you find a trusted group? Or will you remain on your own? Choice is yours.
