Zombie Outbreak of 2019 (Dimension AAA)

The zombie outbreak of 2019 in Dimension AAA, as shown in the segment Morning Show of It's All Been Done Radio Hour, started in Santa Samantha, California in July of that year. President Donald J. Trump was holding a press conference about the development of both a virus and a cure, when he knocked the virus out of the hands of Dr. Schwartz. The virus interacted with the carpet fibers on the platform and became air born, quickly spreading to six Southern Californian cities, and then to Los Angeles. It is unknown if the cure would have worked, but it was not used in time to stop the spread, and Trump chose inaction and a refusal to reverse the way he'd decimated any response infrastructure (Packer & Ratcliff "The Pursuit of Packer").
Some argued that the term 'zombie' was inaccurate, as the infected didn't necessarily behave the way zombies did in movies. They did eat flesh and could move through incapacitating injuries. But they moved slowly, and a bullet to the brain killed them. Dr. Schwartz asserted that the zombies don't do drugs, can't rape, and none of them are "good people." Trump blamed the Democrats for the problem, and Schwartz, and Obama, and really, anyone and anything other than himself.
While President Trump initially seemed confident in his response, he eventually had a mental breakdown and fled the country. His Vice President, Pence, replaced him for only a short time. Pence's plan to combat the virus boiled down to praying it away, and he was quickly impeached. Speaker of the House Patricia Anderson took over and dropped nuclear bombs on half of California, halting the immediate crisis and killing more than 25 million people. This all happened within a month of the initial outbreak ("Fallout"). Survivors relocated to Eastern states, including in Columbus, Ohio.
While rumors abounded that the virus was still active, no evidence of this was known, at least to the public, for two full months. However, in October of that year, it was found the virus was not completely wiped out. It infected four cities in Mexico and began to spread again, an exclusive story broken by Morning Show in Columbus, Ohio, the scoop given to them by Kelly ("Halloween").
Before the end of the year, construction started on a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico, and Congress fought over whether to help the refugees south of the border. Also, President Anderson began considering moving the nation's capital, since so many buildings had been burned and monuments destroyed by protestors in recent months ("Evaluation").
Some began to call the disease the Orange Virus. The Chinese developed a vaccine first, which Mexico bought millions of doses for. The U.S. was more skeptical, only purchasing a small amount to test, and negotiating with Europe for more reliable vaccines when they were done, their own scientists lagging behind ("Conflict of Interest Part 2").
