Seattle under quarantine after virus outbreak
President declares unlimited national state of emergency as remaining population of city walled in with infected
The quarantine walls around Seattle have finished construction, according to military operatives. This follows the outbreak of a deadly virus in the city that, due to its ability to seize control of the muscular functions of those infected has quickly been dubbed the "zombie virus". According to the Center of Disease Control, approximately 15 000 healthy individuals are suspected to remain within the quarantine zone.
Speaking at a press conference, Vice President Ocasio-Cortez said that the decision to seal in uninfected US citizens to prevent a further spread of the disease was "the hardest choice any politician could possibly face". She advised the population of Seattle to make their way to one of the 4 checkpoints, where they would be examined and released if they do not carry the virus. Meanwhile, President Warren undergoes continued treatment at a specialized facility of undisclosed location after coming in contact with the virus.

Church officials continue to refuse comments on the situation. Within the first days of the outbreak becoming public, in a rare joint statement many Christian churches had proclaimed that "the final days are upon us" and urged the faithful to make their way "Seattle, the city of salvation". In the weeks since, approximately 32% of registered members have left those churches. The Pope has withdrawn do his chambers in the Vatican for silent contemplation.
