Variola vera Page #2

He's just screwing you around.

- Doctor, doctor.

- What? What? What do you want?

- We didn't want to disturb you, but because of

Calimero... - Oh, you are so naive!

- Doctor, the new patient ran away.

- True, we don't know...

I always get into some kind of sh*t!

But always!

- Where is the one from here?

- Doctor? - What? - Blood...

Take him in the elevator!

We have to go to surgery...

I'll go for cars.

In interest of science it would be good to

give him an autopsy, but it's your free will.

Halil is going home with us.

Gentleman, the last case of variola vera,

or smallpox...

...took place here in 1930.

I am the only survivor from

all medicine crew in that military hospital.

Crippled, but alive!

They just shown medical findings to me.

And now, it's up to me to

judge if it is variola.

That can't be serious!

If there is even slight suspicion, whole

region must be surrounded. Military if it is necessary!

No one mustn't come out.

Triple vaccines if it's necessary!

And after that you

take analysis!

Variola is dangerous.

It's not something to play with!

We can't block anything until

we have analysis from epidemiologic team.

To late.

If it is variola, it will be to late.

It's enough just one man to get

out from surroundings. - But we only have suspicion,

and that is not enough to

make surroundings, you just said...

Suspicion?

That's enough!

Dear member of academy, Mr. Kostic,

I deeply appreciate your experience...

...and your contribution to science. I'm aware

that you are the only one who has seen variola...

and thats why you are here. To see medical findings,

not to order measures to take.

I will repeat:
Make absolute surroundings

at once!

Unless, someone already

is out.

Good bye, and let the God be with you!

- Danka, what are you doing here?

- Hello, uncle. I'm just passing this way...

Listen, call me. We need to talk.

By all means!

Hey, the end of queue is back there.

- Nope. Book abut disease is taken.

- How's that?

Just while ago. If you want we could go

to the cellar, maybe you'll find something like that...

- Thank you, you are very kind.

- Everything for you...Danka...

- How do you know my name?

- I know everything about you.

We were studying together.

I was looking at you but you didn't notice me.

You were occupied with studying, practice,

always in a hurry...

I failed on third year because Kenigsmark, works with

you at the hospital, didnt' gave permission for exam in ethics.

- How do you know where I work?

- I told you I know everything.

He refused to let me because of may invention.

Herpes vaccine I tried on my black friend.

He wasn't African, just black and he wanted

to become white.

And that my friend took vaccine by his

free will, I have that in writing.

But there was one big white mark

on his back and Kenigsmark refused to let me...

I don't care.

Im fine here, in library.

You have beautiful hair.

He took book about diseases.

Yes... please... yes... yes...

I was just informed from the institute for viruses

that variola was founded.

Word is about Rejepi, patient in General

hospital in Belgrade, that died on 9th this month.

Time of his death was 00:11 am.

Considering that patient was infected

and that he was in Belgrade...

...I have decided to establish

headquarters for quarantine diseases.

For chief of stuff I'm appointing MD Jovanovic.

Comrade Jovanovic, take over this meeting.

In this moment of crises,

we must take extraordinary measures.

There are two main goals.

We must find everyone who

had direct contact with Rejepi,

and we must isolate them.

Stojan, where is Danka?

Why didn't she called me, for Gods sake?!

Beside that, we have third goal,

perhaps most important.

We mustn't allow that information and rumors about

possibility of infection create atmosphere of panic in population.

These things mustnt become weapon

to enemies of our country and our system.

Therefore, I forbid you to give

information of any kind!

- Your uncle called several times.

- I supposed to call him. Transfer his calls to my line.

I have to go...

No, don't come here.

They are going to let me out tomorrow.

You want to come?

No, no, no, sit at home, watch TV.

There is something... I read TV schedule

just now, I can' remember...

You have fever.

Why don't you tell me?

- It's not that bad, I'm fine...

- I told you not to get up...

Heating just stopped. They think it's spring.

See how cold it is!

Dr. Uskokovics office?

Just a moment...

All keys! Right now.

- You! Shut the window!

- What? What is going on?

- You heard me. Shut the window!

- As if...

Wait, let me explain you.

I'm book salesman, I...

- What are you doing?

- 80 pieces of vaccine from Zagreb.

Sign here.

- What from Zagreb?

- Why didn't you sent us gamma globulin?

- I don't know.

- 80 pieces is too little, there are over 150 people here.

Who is going to sign?

Oh, it's you comrade Jovanovic.

I can't hear you! Where are you?

I'm near.

By decision nr. 652/2

made by Ministry for work and social politics,

your hospital is quarantined.

No one can't come out or come in the

building until further notice.

- Doctor? - No one can leave

room until I come back.

Why me?

I cant sign that, I'm just a stoker.

Comrade, you can't come here.

It's forbidden.

Easy, easy! Stop!

You are all going to make a call!

This is not in listing.

- You realize now that you have had to come that night!

- You seemed so resentful...

You are an idiot!

It broke down!

Can't you see what have you done?

Savages...

I'd like to speak with comrade secretary...

You think they cut it?

Falcon, this is sparrow, can you

hear me, over?

Falcon here, I hear you loud and clear, over.

- Finish this!

- Understand, over.

Quiet!

Quiet for a moment!

There is not enough vaccine for everybody.

They promised to get it for us from abroad.

Therefore it is essential to

establish priorities.

- What do you want? Always to be in command?

- And what if I have been infected?!

At this point we can't say for anyone

if he is infected or not.

Regulations are clear. We have to take vaccines

because there is possibility of despise. That's all!

I can' take vaccine because

of my illness.

There are some people we

can't vaccine because of their prior diseases.

I have flue. My throat each.

It's over you old sack.

It would be better if someone younger got vaccine.

- What? It's not going to hurt! Why are

you chicken? - I'm not.

- Have you seen dr. Markovic?

- She is on duty. Dr. Grujic didn't wanted.

He says that under new circumstances

old schedule is worthless.

- Dr. Kenigsmark, do you want me to pickle you now?

- Well, I'm not on the list of those who had contact.

- Doctor, let me explain you. I've just arrived.

Selling was bad on ER... - Sorry, can't help you.

The first one did not take.

And yours?

- Listen, you can't stay here.

- Why?

- What would people say, and... - And...

- You were in contact with him.
