=^= Ven to Captain Jacobs. I don’t have a definitive answer about the source of transmission, but I can confirm that the grapok sauce which is the original source of the infection is home-made, so that at least rules out the replicators as a potential source. This is a novel foodborne pathogen, but the test results and computer analysis indicate that it’s probably spread through cross-contamination - sharing food, drinking from people’s water bottles and the like. That has to stop, right away. If the crew consumes replicator-made food and drink - perhaps from the mess hall replicators only, so we can minimise the infection risk from other sources - that should help to stop the illness spreading. We’ll continue tests on the samples from sick crewmen, sir, and hopefully identify a treatment as quickly as possible. =^=

=^= Thank you Doctor. We will maintain the quarantine for now then, as that will limit peoples ability to share food and drink items. Draft up an alert to be distributed to all crew ASAP. Anything we can do to stop further spread will be a great benefit to the crew. =^=

=^= Williams to the Bridge. Captain, the Environmental Control were damaged by an ill officer, one of the virus victims. We’ll need an engineering team to repair it before we could change back the environmental setting.=^=

=/\= Get it done, Lieutenant. =/\= came the simple reply from Katelyn as she stood in the center of the Bridge with her arms crossed in front of her chest. As annoying as the situation had become, it appeared that they now had it under control or at least on a path toward recovery.
