#IS PARKER DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN BARE METAL SKIN#
One hand on the intratrachael tube, the other gripping the man's shoulder, Vero thought mercy had finally come-until he noticed the patient's skin quivering from head to toe. The body under him abruptly leaped into an explosive arch. For the others, this scene would play over and over in their minds-every time an organ cramped in pain when the fever pushed beads of perspiration, then blood, through their pores and later, during brief moments of lucidity. Vero ached for them, feeling more sorrow for them than he felt for the dying man at least his anguish would end soon. They howled in horror and strained against their bonds. He found himself at once steeling his stomach against the urge to expel his lunch and narrowing his attention to the mechanics of saving this man's life.Īround him, patients writhed on their beds. Having immersed his hands in innumerable body cavities-of the living and the dead-few things the human body could do or produce repulsed him. He caught sight of greasy black mucus streaking the blood and tightened his lips.
His nostrils burned from the acidic tang of the sludge. He snapped his head away from the crimson mist that marked each gasp and cough. Flung from the convulsing body, it streaked up curtains and walls and streamed into dark pools on the tile floor.ĭespesorio Vero, clad in a white lab coat, leaned over the body, pushing an intratrachael tube down the patient's throat his fingers were slick on the instrument. Blood poured from nostrils, ears, fingernails. Black flecks stained his lips, curled back from canted teeth and blistered gums. His eyes had filled with blood and rolled back into his head, so only crimson orbs glared out from behind swollen, bleeding lids. Hardly resembling a man anymore, the thing on the bed jerked and thrashed like a nocturnal creature dragged into the light of day. It means a strong desire to live taking the "Let there be blood!" says man, and there's a sea!Ĭourage is almost a contradiction in terms. "Let there be light!" said God, and there was light! Outdoes Nature herself, and produces by chemistry and machineryĪll the slaughter of plague, pestilence, and famine. In the arts of life man invents nothing but in the arts of death he Theoretically, this gives viruses the ability to find specific DNA to find you. With the advent of gene splicing, scientists are capable of encoding viruses with human DNA. The blood on these cards contains DNA that identifies the donors.
Most Guthrie cards, with these blood spots, are stored in warehouses and never destroyed. It is routinely administered to all babies born in industrialized nations. It involves drawing a sample of blood from a newborn's heel and helps diagnose certain genetic diseases, such as phenylketonuria. The Guthrie test, also called a PKU test, was developed by Robert Guthrie in 1962. Even thirty years after the first Ebola outbreak, no one knows where it came from or where it resides when it is absent from humans or monkeys. In 1995, an airborne strain of Ebola was discovered. With each outbreak, a higher percentage of people who contract it die. Where your own DNAĮbola is one of the most lethal viruses known to man. With perfect accuracy and zero collateral damage.

Those whose DNA is not a match, simply catch a cold.īut those who are a match experience a far worse fate. The germ-an advanced form of the Ebola virus-has been geneticallyĮngineered to infect only those people whose DNA matches the codesĮmbedded within it.
