Captain's log 10909.20
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
It seems that our worst fears may have come to pass. And then again it may be not as according to the medical officer on the Ulysses the viruses are still contained. Hopefully we can get this matter settled and finish the mission. Only time will tell.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Bad Company III >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: On the bridge, going through her mind the viruses she knew and what effects they would have as well as the incubation period.::  CO/CMO:  Whether it is cargo we are to pick up or something else, obviously the crew of the Ulysses is having problems.
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
::In ME with her team chiefs around the MSD which she has converted into a situation display planning out possible response steps and what needs to be assembled to render aid if called on::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: True and before we do anything else we need to determine which it is.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::at his post scanning the  Ulysses for any odd behavior::
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
::Orders one of her Damage Control teams to suit up in EV suits and prepare to board the Ulysses on order with all their toolkits and gear they might need for rendering assistance::
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
XO: So let's get down to Sickbay and get started.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
CO:  Distant diagnostics is very hard to do.  I would suggest we start working with the data we have, but with the understanding, we most likely will need to send a team over there.  :: Looks at Oday::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: Do you have any ideals on which of those viruses on that list have shortest termination rate?

XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
CO:  Not without some research.  There are viruses I have never seen or heard of.   Some of the ones I did recognize, they have done mutations on them, which means that anything could have changed.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Turns to leave with Oday::  CO: As soon as we know more, we will let you know.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: First we need to try and determine what are dealing with before we think of sending personal over there.
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
::nods to the CO and walks next to La'i:: XO: A team would be the easiest thing, but as said before, it'd also be the most dangerous.
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
::Pulls up the techspecs on the virus containment unit and starts going over them with her team chiefs looking for ways the unit could have malfunctioned and how to address them as quickly and safely as possible should they have to deploy to the Ulysses to help::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: stepping onto the lift::  CMO: We may have no choice.  Our advantage of going over there, is we will be operating under the contamination order.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
OPS: Contact the Ulysses.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: sighs::  CMO:  You should contact Jeddi.  This is his area.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> CO: Aye Captain hailing now.
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
XO: Yes... but the virus was under seal and they are still infected. We don't know what it is. It might not be related.
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
*MO*: Jeddi, report to Sickbay immediately.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
CMO:  In this case, I am hoping that might be so.  There was some nasty stuff on that list.
Host SM_Sam says:
@<Commander Otaku>: COM: Arondight: Ulysses here.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Opening slightly blurry eyes he turns to glance at the time::  *CMO*:  On my way.  Anything of import?
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: As the lift stops, she steps off and turns toward medical and the double doors.::
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
XO: If it is on the list, it'll be easier to identify and treat.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Ulysses: Cmdr I need all the data on that containment unit since it has been aboard you ship along with the records of when it was transported to your care.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Climbing out of bed, he heads for the bathing room and quickly gets ready::
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
::walks into Sickbay:: Computer: Open a comm. link with Sickbay on the Ulysses, put it on monitor 3.
Host SM_Sam says:
@<Commander Otaku>: COM: Arondight: Roger I will send that over.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Moves toward one of the stations and begins to pull up the data that had already been sent.  The first is the list of viruses she had already sent to the CEO.  She had the computer begin categorizing the various symptoms as well as incubation times.::

Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Ulysses: Thank you Cmdr lets hope that we can get this settled shortly McDuggle out.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
CMO:  Have them send over any info on those others that have been affected. Let’s look at those for a pattern.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Running a brush through his damp hair, he tosses it aside as he heads for the kitchenette::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Pulls up the captain’s medical information::
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
XO: They should have done that already. ::opens a file and gets the information ready::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO*: Chief I am having the records of on the containment unit from the Ulysses sent to you. I want you and your team to go over them with a fine tooth comb and see if there is any possible time that containment could have been compromised.
Host SM_Sam says:
@<CMO Garth>: COM: Arondight: Garth here.
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
*CO*: Understood Captain, I was just going over the techspecs with my team leaders. We got the transporter biofilters and the life support scrubbers updated already, and I have a Damage Control team suiting up with EV suits and gathering tools as we speak. We are monitoring things down here in our situation room.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: grabbing something to eat, he is out the door and heading for medical, eating as he goes.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO* : Chief if we transported an already infected person would the filter completely rid the person of the disease?
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
COM: Garth: So, let's get started shall we Doctor? What can you tell me so far?
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
CMO:  So far nothing on the captain.  In his 40's, good health other then a minor stomach indigestion.  He has not been off ship since the arrival of the containment field.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Cramming the last bite into his mouth, he enters into medical::
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
*CO*: Theoretically we could Sir, if I had a copy of the transporter trace of the person in an uninfected state so we could compare and remove the offending critters.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO* : I will see if I can get all the transporter records of the Ulysses crew sent to you just in case then
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
*CO*: I'll get a team on that as well Sir.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Looks up and smiles at Jeddi::  MO:  This is your playground.  It would appear the captain and others of the Ulysses are coming down with something.
Host SM_Sam says:
@<CMO Garth>: COM: Arondight: Symptoms are a high fever, elevated heart rate, sweating, and cough and cold.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: smiles as he finds a seat.::  XO:  Something happen with the containment field?
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
MO:  Unknown... it could be something unrelated.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CMO*: Doc can you have the medical officer on the Ulysses send over the transporter records of their crew?

CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
::Assigns a team to look over the Ulysses transporter traces and make sure they are in the memory core ready for use, and then assigns another team to look over the telemetry of the containment unit since it was loaded with the pathogens to see if there have been any errors or malfunctions::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
MO:  So far the symptoms we are looking at are high fever, cough, and shivers.  The last time he was off ship was 5 months ago.  He was on Shoreleave and went to star base 120.
MO_Jeddi says:
::  Nods::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
MO:  I am checking to see if anyone else went.  But given they are talking of a station, it is unlikely there was anything there or we would have heard about it.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
MO:  And it looks like not.  :: has the computer run correlations between those now ill.::  I need you to look over that list of viruses.
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
*CO*: Yes Captain.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Nods and pulls up the data to begin working on.::
CMO_Dr_Redwood says:
COM: Garth: Doesn't seem too unusual, does it. I'll need the transporter records of the crew sent over please.
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
*CO*: Engineer to Captain.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO* : Go ahead Chief.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Makes a note that all but one of the 12 now ill had contact with the containment field::
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
*CO*: I looked over the telemetry from the containment unit. The thing is built like a Starship Sir, inner and outer hull, sealed hatches, and all the systems have a backup. No sign of any containment failure all the way back to when it was first loaded and activated.
Host SM_Sam says:
@<CMO Garth>: COM: Arondight: I will send that over.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO* : Any chance that something could have been compromised during the loading?
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: scanning the records she notes the individual was a workmate of a few of those.::
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
*CO*: I doubt it Sir, I'm sure the folks loading it knew what they were doing, and I'm pretty certain they would have scanned it after loading to make sure none of the bugs were outside the containment before they shipped it.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: has the computer find the connection.  As it does, she adds that the connection was working on a shuttle with a worker who interacted with the containment field.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO*: Good that is the first good news I have heard today.
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
*CO*: Without talking to the folks that actually loaded the unit I can't be 100% Sir, but they do have regulations to cover such things. I'm sure the XO or CMO could tell you more about that. All I know is, all the hardware is working properly, and has since they switched it on.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Checks the shuttle records for a time lapse.::

MO_Jeddi says:
:: Slowly and methodically he begins to work through the data, loosing contact with those around him as he works.::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: frowns::  MO: Jeddi, does any of those viruses have an incubation time of less then ten hours?
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Comes out of his 'trance state' and looks at her a moment before inputting that question to the computer.::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Nods to Oday as he informs her he needs to go check on a patient.::
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
::Checks on the progress of all her teams working on various things to make sure they are going well::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
OPS: NoDuz check back through Starfleet Comms and see if anything has been said about possible similar cases anywhere this cargo has been.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> Aye Captain :: begins going through COM records::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
COMM:  Garth:  Can you tell me if any of the individuals who are now ill worked with the captain in the past... ten hours?
Host SM_Sam says:
@<CMO Garth>: COM: Arondight: Most of them did when they inspected the Containment box.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: shakes his head::  XO:  It would appear there are quite a few.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: Looks over and frowns, shaking her head.  Nothing more needs to be said::
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
::Checks the techspecs of the containment unit to see if any of the systems might give off some kind of EM energy or radiation that might cause side effects or cause health problems if exposed to at close range for any length of time::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
*CO*:  Captain, from the records, those becoming ill have had some contact with the unit either directly or indirectly.  There appear to be no other correlations between those becoming ill.  We are looking at a possible incubation time of ten hours.
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:: a random thought passing through her mind::  *CO*:  Have their route records checked.  Did they go through or near any anomalies?
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*XO* : Roger will have the records checked
CEO_Lt_OReiley says:
::Checks up on the progress of her teams and their projects and ponders where to look next for possible reasons for the current situation::
XO_Cmd_Mea`e says:
:. Passes the info she has so far to Garth, basically collaborating with him that their details are the same.::
