# Disease Detective

Disease Detective:

Objective: Figure out how the zombie virus was originally transmitted and what hypothesis might explain how it happened.

I can understand straightforward factual information about common everyday or job related topics, identifying both general messages and specific details, provided speech is clearly articulated in a generally familiar accent.

This is the status report:

An increasing number of citizens are disappearing, especially at night. These victims are reappearing as perpetrators. They are slow-moving, very strong. They are impervious to pain/injury and appear to be unaware of their surroundings. We’ve discovered that after the victims disappear, they reappear without human blood. Without blood flow, these perpetrators freeze quickly. We believe this is why they are headed south – to warmer temperatures. They are constantly hungry and attacking at an alarming rate.

We’re currently trying to figure out how to stop them, but a defensive standoff is not a long-term solution. What we need to figure out is how this virus originally infected the first victims.

Here’s what we do know. All of the victims attended a carnival in Vancouver. We’ve collected interviews, but haven’t had time to review them for consistencies.

What we need from you, agents, is a thorough investigation. We need to know the root cause of this virus in order to create a vaccine to stop the growing mass of those infected.

Lesson:

You will read/listening to ten collected interview from carnival attendees. You will be conducting an investigation into what the infected attendees have in common. Did they all have a corn dog? Did they attend the same shows?

Use the 11x11 square graph. When listening to the interviews, mark an X to correspond with the infected person and the carnival activity that they participated in that day.

Note: All of the infected victims will have their stories told by someone else (family member/friend), so make sure you write down what the INFECTED person did at the carnival.
