Two Weeks Later
Charles sat in his study watching the news reports, unable to hide his smile. Everything was going exactly as he’d planned. He toasted his own brilliance with a glass of sparkling wine.
“Graham Pharmaceuticals has just received FDA approval for their vaccine against the virulent strain of flu that has killed nearly ten thousand in China. CEO Charles Graham III announced that the vaccine will be distributed to everyone, at no cost. This comes as a great relief as fears that this flu virus will spread to the U.S. escalate. Graham Pharmaceuticals is currently in negotiations to distribute the vaccine internationally. Plans to administer the flu vaccine in schools, hospitals, prisons, senior care facilities, and special clinics are under way. Vaccines will be available two weeks from today. The government is requiring all citizens to receive this vaccine unless they object on religious grounds.”
