The Revelation

A CoVid19 Inspired Fiction Story of a Retired Physician

By KristinPublished 5 years ago 6 min read

Disclaimer: This story is fiction. CoVid19 is just an inspiration for the writer to use her imagination upon writing this story. There are no real observations, no real conduction of studies, and no real confession and no real Blackbook exists. And if the same scenario or same revelation happened in the future, it is just only coincidence.

"It was October 2018 when I caught my wife, with my best friend, cheating on me. I was so down. I was full of anger. I want my wife and my best friend to die, I want to kill them. But I do not want my reputation to be ruined because of their well-played game.

I was a Research Physician at the Intelligence Lab. I studied and invented a virus that could kill my wife and my best friend, with an unknown cause.

I was conducting my studies about the behaviour of the virus that I invented when one of my female co-physician at the Intelligence Lab started to become suspicious of me. She did a private investigation on what I am doing, on and off at the Intelligence Lab. Until she discovered that I was working on a virus, that has the potential of killing with an unknown cause.

Conducting private experiments and studies is prohibited at the Intelligence Lab. My female co-Physician offered me $20,000 to become my research partner on the virus that I invented, as we were in the same situation and she wanted to do the same thing to her ex-husband who cheated on her.

I was afraid to lose my job, and I've been bothered because someone else knew about my hidden project. And that's why I accepted her offer.

We spent days and nights, conducting a secret study with the behaviour and strains of the virus. And we predicted that the virus could only be transmitted through sexual intercourse. A new virus like HIV, and since we are only planning to use it against our cheating partners; we estimated it for only about 4 cases unless our ex-partners and/or their new partners had sexual intercourse with someone else. Because of the predicted low number of cases, this virus was not medically paying attention to.

To conclude our hypothesis with the virus, an observation should be conducted by infusing the virus into a living organism.

It was in October 2019 when we first infused it into a single live cat and placed it on a secured and isolated. The cat's reaction towards the injected virus appeared immediately within 10 minutes. The cat became weak and sick. And after 3 days, the cat died.

On our second observation, we infused the virus into a fertile female single live cat. We placed the fertile female virus carrier cat together with its male non-carrier cat. The fertile female virus carrier cat became weak and sick immediately, the same as our first observation. There was no sexual intercourse occurred between the female virus carrier cat and the male-non carrier cat. But then the male non-carrier cat became weak and sick within 34 hours after being exposed to the female virus carrier cat.

Our prediction seems wrong, that's why we conducted another observation of a single live cat, but this time, we placed the virus carrier cat together with 5 non-carrier live cats. The virus carrier cat showed the same response as the previously observed cats, and the five other cats became weak and sick too after 3 hours. Each cat died one by one; on the seventh day, none of the cats survived.

Our prediction with the virus was wrong, the virus was not a sexually transmitted virus, but a virus-like SARS that could infect everyone in their surrounding, but a fast-approaching SARS-like virus. We have to conduct our last observation, using our last virus vial. We divided the last vial into two, we infused the first half into a cat and the other half to a rat.

We placed the virus carrier cat in a group of ten other live cats, and the virus carrier rat was placed into a group of ten other live rats. It took about six hours and a half before the virus carrier cat and virus carrier rat shows their virus response. And the response time of the other exposed cats and rats were almost the same, and not as immediate as the previous observations. When all of the cats and rats became weak and sick, we combined them all together into one securely closed room. And when the animals started to die one by one, we added a non-exposed chicken to the room. And the chicken became weak and sick too.

On the sixteenth day of our observation, the ten cats, the chicken and nine rats died; and only one rat survived, but was still sick and weak. The struggle of the rat could be seen in its appearance.

Based on our observation, we conclude that the virus could be transmitted to anyone within your surrounding. There was no chance of not getting infected by the virus, a high number of possible deaths could present, and the survival rate was very low. If this was applicable to an animal, there was a huge possibility that humans could have the same reaction too towards the virus.

We are only planning to kill our ex-cheating partners, but not everyone around them. That's why we stopped conducting observations and did not produce any more vials of the virus.

After our last observation, my "virus partner" and I went to a province in Southwest Yunnan. We buried the dead animals close to the cave. And we buried the struggling live rat as well, as we did not see any potential for it to live longer.

Few weeks after we made a conclusion with the virus, I went on a Christmas Holiday trip to Las Vegas, and my "virus partner" went on a trip to Europe.

I was at the hotel in Las Vegas, spending my days and nights alone, I turned on the tv to watch the news, the main headline was pneumonia-like symptom disease, with unknown cause in Wuhan, China. Upon the news, I started to panic and called my "virus partner" right away.

I remember few days after burying the dead animals, we both had a mild pneumonia-like symptom, with some chest tightness. But it immediately went away after drinking a lot of water, with Tylenol and Amoxicillin for 10 days.

The virus was named Wuhan Corona Virus. All of the conducted studies, including the strains and behaviour, were exactly what I and my colleague found with the virus that I made. I cannot be wrong, this is the virus that I created. And it is conquering the entire world. Massive people's death, it became a pandemic.

My "virus partner" and I had the same feeling. Is this Wuhan Corona Virus disease was from the virus that I invented, and we both observed? But how come? We already finished all the virus vials, and we already buried all of the dead animals. Do the bats living inside the cave still catch the virus even if the virus carrier animals were already dead and buried? Do these bats spread out the virus in Wuhan and the people in Wuhan spread it to everyone? I want somebody to tell me that I was wrong again with my hypothesis.

But if my hypothesis were right, I did not intend this to happen. I saw the potential of the virus to became like this, that is why we stopped conducting the study on its last vial. Does anyone else know that I made a virus, other than my colleague? Why this virus became a pandemic?

I hate myself for having full of anger. Because of the anger that I have, because of the idea of killing my ex-wife and my best friend with an unknown cause. I killed almost everyone in the world. And no one knows that it was me, the man behind the pandemic named CoVid19. I cannot handle all of the nightmares that it causes me.

12 years have already passed from the time that the world suffered from the virus that I made. It's already been 12 years and I am still suffering from severe deep depression because of the pandemic that I made.

To my world, to my co-human beings, to all of the families who lost their loved ones, to everyone who got affected by CoVId19. And to everyone who exists during the pandemic, I am sorry. I know my apologies will never be accepted. And I do not deserve to live anymore."

This letter was found on a Blackbook, inside a drawer in the room of the 55-year-old Chinese Nationality Retired Physician who committed suicide on his own condominium apartment in China.
