The scans of the queen were consistent with lysergic acid diethylamide or psilocybin poisoning, activating many clusters of the brain all at once including those responsible for the sense of self and the sensory processing centers. She was, quite insane, though maybe it was all one big hallucination that took over her re-reality?

Oh yes what code was it again? Red. The station decided it was code red.

Alexis sent the results from the tricorder to the main med bay and hoped that someone would see the results on the main screen in sickbay and do something with it. The captain and other members of the crew with her were suffering from lysergic acid diethylamide or psilocybin poisoning.

Lt. Bonner, AMO

As Jenyfer and the Pychiatrist arrived by teleport she frowned. There was a lot going on. “Apparently this hasn’t been an isolated incident.” She looked around for the ranking Doctor in the area. She needed to help and they needed to figure out what this was and make sure it was stopped as quickly as possible. A viral outbreak on a station was much more deadly than anyone considered. And sadly, it would spread swiftly if the path of contagion wasn’t discovered swiftly.

The ensign and the crewman looked at the new arrivals and the ensign (whose name has been forgotten) sighed in relief. “Oh thank goodness. Backup! I don’t know what’s going on exactly, but we might have a lead,” she said as she moved over to the screen with the results that Bonner had sent. “This is apparently a scan of the captain…”

“The Captain?” Brad asked. “You mean Her Grace, the Queen!” He paused and theatrically slapped his hand to the side of his head. “Oh dear, she is the important date for which I am now very, very late! She’ll have my head for sure!”

Cmdr. Dr. Brad Walker
Chief of Staff

Jenyfer recognized the man from earlier. Careful not to get close enough to be touched, she smiled and reassured the man. “No, no. She won’t have your head. She ordered everyone to remain here. This is where the important date is to be and tea will be along shortly. She is coming, not to worry.” She glanced back to the NE and shook her head. “So what are we looking at? Any idea how it’s spreading? If not by touch, I think we need to get some folks cleared and out of here so they can either warn or help others.”

“Could be airborne,” the ensign said with a nod. “Containment may not be possible until we know how they coming into contact with this. I mean, tracing where these potential narcotics came from will be key. Do we know who all else is okay still? If the captain is down, what about Commander Myqian?”

“Honestly, I just came aboard last night and had come looking for my check in and found Dr. Grayson with the Chief of Staff. I found him talking about having to get to tea before losing his head. Dr. Grayson seems fine, and I haven’t felt anything untowards. I still hate tea,” she laughed softly to ease the tension. “So I am guessing, at this point, it’s tactile contact that transmits. Otherwise I think a lot more folks would be affected.” She glanced around with her brain in high gear. “I haven’t checked in yet, but I am guessing that’s moot at this point. Let’s see to it everyone uses max protocols for contact contraction. That means double hand safeguards and arm coverings for those working with the inflicted. They last out enough we don’t want exposed arms to be a contact point. Also, let’s see if we can draw blood and try and figure out what this thing is.” She sent a couple nurses to do as she said and accepted the dual layer gloves and arm sleeves handed to her.

Glancing around the room as she put the protection on, she looked for the senior most Medical person available. Surely she wasn’t the only one here. Least… she hoped she wasn’t. As she moved to one of the consoles to get her bearings and see what had been logged so far, she saw the Main Screen lit up with a message that the AMO had determined it was lysergic acid diethylamide or psilocybin poisoning that was affecting them.

Suddenly Jenyfer laughed. “Hallucinogens…” She turned to the others and shook her head. “Test them for psilocybin poisoning. If that’s what they have, they all need showers and sleep. It will wear off in a few hours. We just need to find out how they got it and if it’s ‘on’ them, make sure it’s not transferable.” She shook her head once more and hoped that was all this was. The question now was How and why?. The fact that someone had affected the Command Staff was disconcerting. It meant this was more than a prank.

The Med NE’s nodded and, since they were still in their biohazard suits, moved over to the Chief of Staff to run scans and do a blood tox screen.

Not having had her comm badge activated yet, Jenyfer tapped the console. =^=This is Lieutenant JG Jenyfer Lynset, Sir. Pleasure to meet you. I’m the new Virologist. I believe we had an appointment for this evening,=^= she laughed softly, hoping to ease the tension a bit. =^= I’m in main medical with Dr Grayson who found the Chief of Staff and a couple others inflicted. I’m not sure who all I have down here, to be honest. But we’ve been told by the AMO that its a hallucinogen that is affecting folks. We are thinking touch contact spread and not airborne, since more of us aren’t afflicted.=^= She knew it was more than a sounding off, but he had to know what was going on and that was her reason for the short ramble.
