Subject: Sec-B-M Chip 2.7.4 has been shipped

Ms. Klein,

The new Sec-B-M chips have been sent out. The first shipment will contain 120,000 chips ready for installation. These chips will allow you to increase the P~~R~~DRM upload speed to 1300MB/s without any risk of overloading the subject.

I have forwarded the installation instructions to your cybernetics team, though it's much the same as all the 2.7's. There may be a slight protuberance once implanted as the chips use ~~the~~a new integrated 3d structure, making them slightly thicker. We have reinforced the shell to account for the reduced sub-dermal depth. The new chips are more vulnerable to magnetism, so they'll need to be checked if the subject is exposed to any field in excess of 25,000g.

Please be careful with over pasting. Dots not crosses.

Health Dept. Recommends Lock Down
by Sherry Ladella

After the recent outbreak of the so-called the "Florida Flu" in Maricopa, the county health department is encouraging citizens to use "social distancing" to prevent transmission of the outbreak. Little is known about the virus, but the rapid increase in confirmed cases in the last few days is staggering. Governor Dresden has been briefed by the Maricopa Health Department, and is expected to reach a decision by ~~the~~ end of ~~the~~ week. Sources tell us that a full social and commercial lock down has been advised.

The virus first appeared in Maricopa after several tour parties returned from the Miami Beach new year celebrations. Several students and faculty from Arizona State were the first to come down with the virus, and despite efforts to contain the outbreak (including closing down ASU for 2 full weeks), the Florida Flu has spread to multiple communities in and around Phoenix.

Do I have it?
Without any official word from either the county, or from the health department, many people are rightfully angry that they have not been informed on how to recognize the virus, nor how to care for the infected. The Register is taking the unprecedented action of listing reported symptoms here. If you or anyone you know exhibits several of these symptoms, it is recommended you contact your health care provider immediately:

Whitening of the skin
Inflammation of the cheeks, neck, lips and extremities (fingers, toes)
Spinal pain or shocks
Susceptibility to bruising or broken bones
Accelerated breathing/panting
Blood in the sputum

Treatment for the virus is unknown, although a detailed report is expected from ~~the~~ state government in the next few days.

Until then, the Register advises you stay indoors, stock that fridge, and start streaming.

Marcus,

We have seen similar issues with operatives making statements that seem to come out of nowhere, but that's usually related to some outside stimulus or a poorly structured objective module. Please send me the ID of the operative so I can offline them and research. As for the other issue - maybe the schematics it had were corrupted and it thought the closet was a waypoint? I doubt if we need to worry about it.

Ms. Klein,

I've been going through the Biocom logs from last month (March-April 2054). I do this every so often to confirm that objective stacking and prioritization is functioning as expected. It's usually all fine except for the odd hiccup if an operative has an unexpected reaction to a PRDM or a temperature dropped in their pod or something - meaning it's invariably an outside issue and not Biocom related.

But last month we had two issues with the objective stack which seem to come directly from Biocom. These are two separate operatives of different generations, using different boosters, on two unrelated missions.

The first issue I noticed was ~~that~~ the operative was ordered to escort a group of environment techs through a restricted zone, surveil them as they cleared some blockage in a vent, then escort them out of the restricted zone. The operative completed the first four entries on the objective stack, but then added a new objective to the stack. It went to a storage closet, unlocked the door, waited for 6 minutes inside the closet, then returned to the environment tech and continued with the original stack. It didn't take anything from the closet, didn't speak to anyone, and didn't initiate any combat. It's very weird. I don't know where the new objective came from, or how it slotted into the stack so easily - but only Biocom can do this. It's almost as if someone was testing me to see if we'd notice. I'd appreciate it if you told me if this was a test of some kind. I don't want to burn hours on something like this if it was contrived.

The second issue is likely more related to you. An operative told the scientist they were guarding that Project Insight "you must stop". The scientist asked the KSO to repeat the statement, but the KSO ignored him and resumed its patrol.

Statement from Dr Gloria Rutermayer, WHO Regional Director for Europe

14 March 2053, Copenhagen, Denmark

With the NAM-V outbreak in Manchester, England, the World ~~h~~Health Organization is now declaring the NAM-V virus as a phase 6 global pandemic. The virus is no longer confined to just Mexico and the United States and has spread to a new WHO region.

Keep yourself and others safe.
- Wash hands regularly
- Wear a mask
- Practice ~~S~~social ~~D~~distancing
- Inform local authorities of any known cases of NAM-V

Your commitment to following these guidelines WILL SAVE LIVES.

The risks of getting NAM-V are substantially higher in inadequately ventilated spaces where infected people spend even short periods of time together in close proximity. The R-Naught of NAM-V is currently at 17, making it one of the most infectious contagions in human history. There is no currently ~~no~~ known cure for NAM-V, and treatment options are limited.

The WHO are tracing the origins of the virus to learn more about its spread, and are requesting the help of any and all national health agencies. If we can find the earliest cases, we may be able to identify the host that first carried the virus. It is unknown whether the original host was an animal or a plant.

As the search for Patient Zero continues, the WHO is reminding all nations that contact tracing is of the most utmost importance as soon as any cases of viral infections have been documented: WHETHER CONFIRMED AS NAM-V OR NOT.

Although the virus has currently only been detected in the United States, Mexico~~,~~ and the United Kingdoms, there is a 90% probability that the virus is present in all continents.~~//file ends~~

Subject: Changes

I will be serving as the Project Manager for Santonian Mining Company until a suitable replacement can be found. The tragic loss of Andrew has affected us all deeply, but we must carry on regardless. That is what he would have wanted.

I will attempt to make myself available to you as much as possible but would appreciate patience as we make changes in response to the tragic events of October 13th.

We will be adjusting security procedures to make sure we are not caught off guard in the future, including restricting access to some areas. This is for your own safety. The energy surge created multiple blast tunnels to the surface. These tunnels are dangerous and unpredictable, so we will be sealing them off while inspections and repairs are conducted. Should you find a shaft that has not been surveyed, make sure you inform a Project Insight coordinator so the area can be secured and sealed off.

We will be installing additional security doors throughout Garganta to isolate and contain any future events. There may be some teething problems getting access to certain areas as we integrate the new system, so bear with us. If you need access to a restricted area, contact a security officer.

Do NOT, under any circumstances, enter a restricted area without clearance. I cannot stress this enough.

A memorial service for Andrew will be held once social interaction limitations have been relaxed. We are following the recommended WHO guidelines to combat NAM-V even here in Garganta, the safest place you could be right now. As a reminder, we should all do our bit:

- Keep ~~y~~Yourself and others safe:
- Wash hands regularly (20 seconds using anti-bacterial soap or bleach)
- Practice Social Distancing (6 -10 feet whenever possible)
- Inform medical staff of any unreported cases of NAM-V within the facility

In response to multiple complaints about wearing masks, we are not mandating their use. If you elect not to wear a mask, please exercise common sense (cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze, keep a reasonable distance etc.) Your choice in this matter will be recorded in your personnel file.

Subject: Our culture

Ronnie,

I have authorized the changes you requested, and three sectors have been allocated as triage centers for any employees showing signs of exposure. Isolation of the subjects is essential. With these resources now available to you, I expect more detailed analysis of the subjects in the future. We need to know what is causing the physical abnormalities. Is the spinal deformation permanent, and can the subject~~s~~ continue to work?

You also need to address the negative culture that is developing out of this. I have heard the term "stoopers" used to describe the subjects. This cannot continue. It incite~~s~~d fear and opposition. Address your teams, Ronnie. This term is no longer acceptable in the Project Insight lexicon. You also need to stamp out use of the word "parasite" for any staff below tier 5.

To prevent any further dissent, I suggest you remove any personnel showing signs of insubordination. Your Kovac handler has been informed of the situation and is available to deal with any troublemakers.
You have my full support, as long as the work continues.

Dean Lockwood

Mr. Clinton,

As I mentioned in our original discussion (I have attached the Hearsay recording for your review), the Santonian employee contract is very clear on the punishment for entering restricted areas. Kovac Defensive Services have a comprehensive contract with both the Santonian Mining Company and the Mexican government that allows Kovac to establish martial law and "administrative punitive consequence" over any person within the exclusion zone. This is not just a company contract~~;~~, it is national law.

All workers at Garganta and the surrounding area agree to these regulations when they sign their contract.

Andrew,

I'm so sorry for your loss. That sounds terrible. I did not know Igor R~~o~~stok C122 personally, but I have heard good things about him. I am sure the Santonian family will mourn his loss greatly.

I am forwarding this message to Andre. He deals with all security issues within Garganta. As you know I am merely an advisor to Santonian Industries. I have nothing to do with company policy or procedure. I can only say that I condone the use of excessive force in any circumstance, and I hope Santonian and Kovac can come to some amicable resolution to this issue.

Mr. Davies,

On July 28th, Igor Rostock C122, a Generalist Engineers, was shot and killed by a KSO for "entering a restricted area".

That is the full extent of the information Kovac ~~gave~~have given to me. They killed a Santonian employee, and all that I know is that he was "entering a restricted area". Andre Piros won't give me any more information.

I don't know who to turn to. One of our employees has been killed for walking into the wrong area, and no one here seems to ~~care~~give a shit. I knew Igor personally, and he was a company man through and through. The fact that he could ever be seen as a threat by Kovac is nonsense, and in what world is it okay to execute a person on the spot for trespassing? As I write that I realize how fucking insane it is.

I don't know what to do here Mr. Davies. I need help. Kovac are out of control. I can handle the Project Insight restrictions to a point, and understand the need for security, but this has just gone too far.

Andrew Clinton B035
