The Vaccine

Nitcentral's Bulletin Brash Reflections: Outer Limits: Season Four: The Vaccine

It has been three months since the doomsday cult unleashed the genetically engineered Berlin C virus, and today most of the world is dead or dying. Among the living are a group of hospital patients and their nurse, Marie Alexander, who have survived because they were already under quarantine when the virus struck. They are running out of food and fuel when a soldier arrives with a new vaccine from the Center for Disease Control. But, there's only enough for three doses and it will take three days for the vaccine culture to develop enough to be effective. It falls to Marie to maintain order until the vaccine is ready and to decide who will get injected. Katz, a good-humored old man dying of terminal cancer knows he won't get the vaccine. But, will it go to Harry, the sweet-tempered eight-year-old? Or to Graham, the 18-year-old with a chip on his shoulder? To Barb or Kirk? To Jean or Lawrence? Or will it come down to a return to the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest?

Sadly, such a scenario is possible now.
