[AUDIO | 006 : Nothing to Sneeze At] Wednesday Evening, Week 16
This is Major Alenko.
I've got answers on what the bandits at the hospital were after, and a start on why.
[There's a thread of fatigue in Kaidan's voice, but it's blended in amongst a grimly level quality that lends a little more grit to his usual gentle rasp. One audible intake of breath later, he breaks his pause for attention and continues.]
Long story short, they were after medical supplies because there's some sort of illness that hit their camp, and hit it hard. Out of the nine that jumped us, we had three survivors. We're down to two now, and one's not looking pretty. The other's feverish too. Whatever hit 'em seems to have come from the south -- a trader they'd contacted said there was an outbreak well south of here.
I'm no doctor. I'm certainly no virologist. But if you ran into the bandits, or were at the hospital that day, keep an eye on how you're feeling.

And certainly, Captain. I figure I'll just keep away from the hospital and not get in people's way, though. I've got some salvage planned with Stark that'll keep me at a remove, and my combat armour's rated for space, so it'll filter pretty much anything if I set it right.
You look after yourself too. Don't run yourself ragged looking after everyone else.
[Kaidan, who can mother hen with the best of them, recognizes a fellow carrier of the trait.]
