It’s not clear how the space bacteria may affect the health of astronauts on the space station, but the authors of the paper call for preventive measures to help mitigate the effects of the mutated species. It’s also unclear whether these mutated, drug-resistant microbes pose a risk to humans on Earth. Well, we’re fucked…. Was a pleasure knowing y’all. |

By "preventive measures" it means those astronauts should never be allowed to return to Earth.

I'm just grateful that they're saying preventive instead of preventative. I know both are proper, but one annoys me and the other doesn't.

Not sure anyone would have the balls to say sorry astronauts no return trip for you. They would have to meet with a space accident or be cut off from supplies and a story invented as to why. Could people on Earth prevent the ISS astronauts from returning, short of something like shooting missiles at the ISS? "Hop in Dragon and/or Soyuz capsule, close hatch, fire rockets to deorbit" doesn't sound like it requires action by anyone on the ground. The action by the people on the ground is to pick up Dragon out of the ocean, and that's not even a requirement for Soyuz since they land on solid ground. |

Information's under the label Neurotropic Agent X on your machines, but you needn't bother. That's about as far as we got, naming it. I'll sum up what we know, but you don't need an expert for this: there are no experts on Neuro-X. It broke out on August 9. The initial report was five cases, one death. Symptoms were progressive paralysis, convulsions, loss of motor control, numbness.
The station was immediately quarantined as a standard procedure. An epidemiological team was dispatched from Atlanta, followed by another from New Dresden. By the time the teams arrived, there were over a hundred reported cases, and six more deaths. Later symptoms included blindness and deafness. It progressed at different rates in different people, but it was always quite fast. Mean survival time from onset of symptoms was later determined to be forty-eight hours. Nobody lived longer than four days. Both medical teams immediately came down with it, as did a third, and a fourth team. All of them came down with it, each and every person. The first two teams had been using class three isolation techniques. It didn't matter. The third team stepped up the precautions to class two. Same result. Very quickly we had been forced into class one procedures -- which involves isolation as total as we can get it: no physical contact whatsoever, no sharing of air supplies, all air to the investigators filtered through a sterilizing environment. They still got it. Six patients and some tissue samples were sent to a class one installation two hundred miles from New Dresden, and more patients were sent, with class one precautions, to a hospital ship close to Charlie. Everyone at both facilities came down with it. We almost sent a couple of patients to Atlanta. I was in charge. I can't take credit for not shipping anyone to Atlanta. We were going to, and suddenly there wasn't anybody left to load patients aboard. All dead or dying. |
