I\u2019m your host, Eria Quint. Almost a week ago, scientists identified a new virus, unofficially called Lynch Fever, in six separate patients on ArcCorp in Stanton. Within days, the virus inexplicably appeared in Nemo and Goss. Virologists could not establish a connection between the new cases and the first batch, igniting a firestorm of fear and panic of a new pandemic. Today we have two special guests. First, from the UEE\u2019s Public Health Society, Dr. Illeana Byrne.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Hello.\n\nERIA QUINT: Dr. Byrne, you\u2019ve recently presented a report to the Senate summarizing the effects and projections of an unchecked spread of Lynch Fever. Would you be able to elaborate?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Of course. The report was broken into several parts, first an analysis of the disease as we know it and second, possible methods for containing the virus so we have time to try to work out an antibody before it gets out of control.\n\nERIA QUINT: Have you identified the virus itself?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: No. It seems to act similar to a norovirus. Initial symptoms are the titular fever and sweats along with a gastrointestinal pain, but over time, the virus transforms into something resembling a bacterial meningitis, which can cause inflammation of the membranes around the brain and spinal cord.\n\nERIA QUINT: Have you isolated how the disease is transmitted?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Not specifically. Close contact has been a leading theory, but it doesn\u2019t account for the appearance of the virus in the other two systems.\n\nERIA QUINT: And that\u2019s what led to the second part of your report, your methods of containment, which caused some controversy and brings us to our second guest. We\u2019re pleased to welcome Garet Waldon, Associate Director in the Trade & Development Division.\n\nGARET WALDON: Thanks for having me.\n\nERIA QUINT: What was it about Dr. Byrne\u2019s report that you found so disagreeable?\n\nGARET WALDON: I\u2019m happy to let Dr. Byrne explain.\n\nERIA QUINT: Dr. Byrne?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: I was simply suggesting that we act within the accepted parameters of any quarantine and lock down transportation and trade until we can definitively identify and isolate exactly what\u2019s causing the spread of the disease. It could be food or specific ingredients in food.\n\nGARET WALDON: \u2018Simply\u2019 being the operative word.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: This is a very real danger, Mr. Waldon.\n\nGARET WALDON: I\u2019m aware of that, but I don\u2019t think you appreciate the extent of your request. Secondly, as of now, Lynch\u2019s isn\u2019t fatal, correct?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Not that we know of.\n\nGARET WALDON: Right, so I wouldn\u2019t say that we\u2019re in an apocalyptic-level pandemic scenario that would justify grinding the entire Empire\u2019s economy to a screeching halt.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: With all due respect, I think you\u2019re being rather dismissive of the course of action outlined in the report. All we were suggesting was instituting a series of scans and additional questions at commercial jump points to determine if the cargo or the pilot and crew were positive for the virus.\n\nGARET WALDON: You\u2019re talking technological upgrades as well as training the border agents to be able to identify infected pilots. That takes two things: time and money. What happens in the meantime? Do we lock down the jump points? Seal everyone in their systems? Who\u2019s going to institute that quarantine? The military? My point is, it\u2019s simply not possible to enforce this kind of action instantaneously.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Then maybe we need to start building some contingency plans that have the capability for rapid action should a situation that satisfies your \u2018apocalyptic-level\u2019 scenario arises, because I can assure you, at some point we\u2019ll need it.\n\nGARET WALDON: Look, I would fully support designing systems to handle the appearance of a deadly virus. It\u2019s not my area of expertise or my department, but I would absolutely help if I could. However, what you\u2019re asking now won\u2019t stop the spread of Lynch Fever and will only damage a struggling economy.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Mr. Waldon, I suppose my question is, how do you equate a credit amount to the number of people that could be affected by this disease?\n\nGARET WALDON: I suppose I have faith that our gifted scientific and medical community will discover a vaccine. In the meantime, the rest of us have to do what we can to keep the gears of commerce turning.\n\nERIA QUINT: With that, we\u2019re going to take a quick break and reload before another round of Showdown!\n\nTRANSCRIPT BREAK","de_DE":"Automatische \u00dcbertragung f\u00fcr S&P- und NFSC-Einreichungen\nEP: 57:49 Uhr: \"Wirtschaftspandemie?\"\nERIA QUINT: Hallo und willkommen bei Showdown, wo wir die Themen, die die Aufmerksamkeit der \u00d6ffentlichkeit auf sich gezogen haben, aus zwei sehr unterschiedlichen Perspektiven betrachten. Ich bin dein Gastgeber, Eria Quint. Vor fast einer Woche identifizierten Wissenschaftler bei sechs verschiedenen Patienten auf ArcCorp in Stanton ein neues Virus, das inoffiziell Lynchfieber genannt wurde. Innerhalb weniger Tage erschien das Virus unerkl\u00e4rlicherweise in Nemo und Goss. Virologen konnten keinen Zusammenhang zwischen den neuen F\u00e4llen und der ersten Gruppe herstellen, was einen Feuersturm der Angst und Panik vor einer neuen Pandemie ausl\u00f6ste. Heute haben wir zwei besondere G\u00e4ste. Erstens, von der UEE's Public Health Society, Dr. Illeana Byrne.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Hallo.\n\nERIA QUINT: Dr. Byrne, Sie haben k\u00fcrzlich einen Bericht an den Senat vorgelegt, der die Auswirkungen und Prognosen einer unkontrollierten Ausbreitung des Lynchfiebers zusammenfasst. K\u00f6nntest du das n\u00e4her ausf\u00fchren?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Nat\u00fcrlich. Der Bericht wurde in mehrere Teile gegliedert, erstens eine Analyse der Krankheit, wie wir sie kennen, und zweitens m\u00f6gliche Methoden zur Eind\u00e4mmung des Virus, so dass wir Zeit haben, einen Antik\u00f6rper zu entwickeln, bevor er au\u00dfer Kontrolle ger\u00e4t.\n\nERIA QUINT: Haben Sie das Virus selbst identifiziert?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Nein. Es scheint sich \u00e4hnlich wie ein Norovirus zu verhalten. Erste Symptome sind das Titelfieber und Schwei\u00dfausbr\u00fcche zusammen mit Magen-Darm-Schmerzen, aber im Laufe der Zeit verwandelt sich das Virus in etwas, das einer bakteriellen Meningitis \u00e4hnelt, die eine Entz\u00fcndung der Membranen um das Gehirn und das R\u00fcckenmark verursachen kann.\n\nERIA QUINT: Haben Sie isoliert, wie die Krankheit \u00fcbertragen wird?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Nicht speziell. Der enge Kontakt war eine der f\u00fchrenden Theorien, aber er erkl\u00e4rt nicht das Auftreten des Virus in den beiden anderen Systemen.\n\nERIA QUINT: Und das ist es, was zum zweiten Teil Ihres Berichts gef\u00fchrt hat, Ihren Methoden der Eind\u00e4mmung, die einige Kontroversen ausgel\u00f6st haben und uns zu unserem zweiten Gast f\u00fchren. Wir freuen uns, Garet Waldon, Associate Director im Bereich Trade & Development, begr\u00fc\u00dfen zu d\u00fcrfen.\n\nGARET WALDON: Danke, dass ich kommen durfte.\n\nERIA QUINT: Was war es an Dr. Byrne's Bericht, den Sie so unangenehm fanden?\n\nGARET WALDON: Ich freue mich, Dr. Byrne erkl\u00e4ren zu lassen.\n\nERIA QUINT: Dr. Byrne?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Ich habe lediglich vorgeschlagen, dass wir innerhalb der akzeptierten Parameter jeder Quarant\u00e4ne handeln und Transport und Handel sperren, bis wir eindeutig identifizieren und isolieren k\u00f6nnen, was genau die Ausbreitung der Krankheit verursacht. Es kann sich um Lebensmittel oder bestimmte Zutaten in Lebensmitteln handeln.\n\nGARET WALDON: \"Einfach\" ist das Schl\u00fcsselwort.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Das ist eine sehr gro\u00dfe Gefahr, Mr. Waldon.\n\nGARET WALDON: Das ist mir bewusst, aber ich glaube nicht, dass Sie den Umfang Ihrer Anfrage zu sch\u00e4tzen wissen. Zweitens, ab jetzt ist Lynch's nicht t\u00f6dlich, oder?\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Nicht, dass wir w\u00fcssten.\n\nGARET WALDON: Richtig, also w\u00fcrde ich nicht sagen, dass wir uns in einem apokalyptischen Pandemieszenario befinden, das es rechtfertigen w\u00fcrde, die Wirtschaft des gesamten Imperiums zu einem kreischenden Stillstand zu bringen.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Bei allem Respekt, ich denke, Sie sind eher ablehnend gegen\u00fcber der im Bericht dargelegten Vorgehensweise. Alles, was wir vorschlugen, war die Einf\u00fchrung einer Reihe von Scans und zus\u00e4tzlichen Fragen an kommerziellen Sprungbrettpunkten, um festzustellen, ob die Ladung oder der Pilot und die Crew positiv auf das Virus reagieren.\n\nGARET WALDON: Sie sprechen von technologischen Upgrades und trainieren die Grenzbeamten, um infizierte Piloten identifizieren zu k\u00f6nnen. Dazu braucht es zwei Dinge: Zeit und Geld. Was passiert in der Zwischenzeit? Sperren wir die Sprungbretter? Jeden in seinen Systemen versiegeln? Wer wird diese Quarant\u00e4ne einf\u00fchren? Das Milit\u00e4r? Mein Punkt ist, dass es einfach nicht m\u00f6glich ist, diese Art von Ma\u00dfnahmen sofort durchzusetzen.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Dann m\u00fcssen wir vielleicht anfangen, einige Notfallpl\u00e4ne zu erstellen, die die F\u00e4higkeit zum schnellen Handeln haben, sollte eine Situation eintreten, die Ihrem Szenario auf der \"apokalyptischen Ebene\" entspricht, denn ich kann Ihnen versichern, dass wir es irgendwann brauchen werden.\n\nGARET WALDON: H\u00f6ren Sie, ich w\u00fcrde es voll und ganz unterst\u00fctzen, Systeme zu entwickeln, die das Auftreten eines t\u00f6dlichen Virus verhindern. Es ist nicht mein Fachgebiet oder meine Abteilung, aber ich w\u00fcrde absolut helfen, wenn ich k\u00f6nnte. Was Sie jetzt fragen, wird jedoch die Ausbreitung des Lynchfiebers nicht stoppen und nur einer angeschlagenen Wirtschaft schaden.\n\nDR. ILLEANA BYRNE: Herr Waldon, ich nehme an, meine Frage ist, wie setzt man einen Kreditbetrag mit der Anzahl der Menschen gleich, die von dieser Krankheit betroffen sein k\u00f6nnten?\n\nGARET WALDON: Ich nehme an, ich glaube, dass unsere begabte wissenschaftliche und medizinische Gemeinschaft einen Impfstoff entdecken wird. In der Zwischenzeit m\u00fcssen wir anderen alles in unserer Macht Stehende tun, um die Weichen f\u00fcr den Handel zu stellen.\n\nERIA QUINT: Damit machen wir eine kurze Pause und laden vor einer weiteren Runde Showdown nach!\n\nTRANSKRIPTUMBRUCH","zh_CN":"Auto-Transcript for S&P and NFSC Submission\nEP: 57:49 : \u201cEconomic Pandemic?\u201d\nERIA QUINT: Hello and welcome to Showdown, where we take a look at the topics that have seized the public\u2019s attention from two very different viewpoints.
