ON THE ORIGINAL EARTH OF TECHNOLOGY
Everything seemed completely quiet on the surface at the moment, but behind this surface, without the knowledge of any of the common people, a crisis of brewing.
The size of this crisis was so big to the degree of it being pandemic and threatening the whole of humanity!
Currently, every country around the world, enemy or friend were at a secret meeting.
Presidents, kings, supreme leaders, etc. All of them were discussing, trying to think of a solution for this pandemic problem they were facing at the moment.

AT THE MEETING THAT WAS BEING HELD
The highest authority of each country was present in the meeting that being held right now, with the president of the United States being the one to arrange the meeting.
They were at this moment looking at each other with pale faces, as hopelessness was plastered on all of their faces.
The enemy countries were no longer looking at each other with hatred, the friend countries weren’t trying to flatter each other. Only an atmosphere of despair was dominant in the gigantic secret press conference room.
“We don’t know when this had begun to spread… but we’re late now… it’s already too late.” The president of the United States stated with a face that held almost no hope.
Then he continued, “The only thing we can do now is to gather the best experts of that field we each have in our country and bring them together so they would be able to think of the best solution in the shortest period of time if that’s possible at all! Who knows, maybe after they all combine each other’s knowledge, they would be able to think of a solution.”
“Can’t we do anything else other than this? I mean… America is the most advanced in the world, right? America must’ve already thought of a solution right? Just let us in Mr. President… come on!” The King of Saudi Arabia voiced with a tone that indirectly accusing America to already having the solution to this problem.
“Do you think I’m stupid enough to hide the solution if I had one? This is no longer the talk of benefiting the country or whatnot, this problem concerns the whole humanity!” The President of the United States replied with a harsh voice like he was greatly insulted.
“Anyway, let’s bring all of our best experts together right now first, we can’t even miss one minute. Also, please use all of your powers to suppress this news from spreading to the world at all costs, though I don’t know for how much longer we can keep this under wraps… but just the thought of this spreading and the panic that would follow it after is sending shivers down to my spine.” The president of Russia interrupted with impatience.
“Okay… if all of you agree with putting our experts into this, call and make the arrangements right now before we continue our meeting, also emphasize absolute secrecy once again.” The president of the Philippines, who happened to be a female, uttered after hearing what others said.
Listening to his words, everyone nodded their heads in agreement as they began calling and making the arrangements to send the best experts in that specific field. They also ordered to make the media absolutely under surveillance while taking other security measures to prevent this from spreading at all costs.
After their calls ended, they continued their discussion with a downcast mood showing on their faces.
“How do you guys think this happened? Why would it mutate to such a degree all of a sudden?” The President of United States inquired confusedly, but he knew that others probably wouldn’t be able to provide an answer to that.
After that, a deadly silence covered the room for a while, when the United States’ President asked once again, “Do you guys think there is someone behind this mutation? Why would this happen?”
Hearing this the others had a pondering expression on their face for a moment before one of them replied, “Who would be crazy enough to mutate that? That’s impossible, it’s most likely mutated by itself… unless there is someone who wants us all dead?”
“Right, right… that sounds unlikely.” Another one uttered, while the rest were either nodding their head or didn’t even bother to nod their heads.

After that, tens of best teams of experts and scientists were gathered from all over the world in the most advanced laboratory.
They began putting all the hidden knowledge and breakthroughs they had together first, and after they were done with that, they began an intense phase of research together, putting all of their heads into it in cooperation.
“How could this happen! HIV was supposed to be only transmittable through the transfer of blood, pre-ejaculate, semen, and vaginal fluids… or from a mother to the child at most… I mean it always transmitted and infected others through intense contact! But how… how has it mutated to such a monstrous degree, it’s now also spreading through the air! And it’s extremely infectious!” One of the best scientists in the world who was very famous in the field of HIV stated filled with desperation and distress.
Then he continued, “You catch it whether you breathe or not just by being in a close proximity to the person who has it… even if you’re tens of meters away from the infected person, you still catch it… because this new HIV makes the air polluted to a degree that even if just the air surrounding the infected person touches another one tens of meters away, that person still catches it! This new HIV is simply impossible to stop from spreading to everyone and everywhere, even if it was possible, it’s already too late as probably ninety percent of the whole planet already has it and I would say in at most a couple of more days, everyone will definitely get it.” By the end of his words, dark lines were clearly obvious on his forehead as he was full of distress.
“Yeah… I can’t believe it has mutated to this degree… but if that was all there was to it, we would’ve still had around a decade or more to find the cure… but now… we only have at most around a year before the whole planet is… dead… because it’s mutated to such a degree that the process of it infecting and killing the carrier of the disease is now shortened to one year if that person is lucky…” Another famous HIV scientist stated in despair.
Then he continued, “And that’s not all…you see, even for the previous HIV, if we all put our brains into this, it would’ve been almost impossible to find a cure… but now… it’s even more impossible because the mutated Virus continues mutating inside the carrier to thousands of new forms and it continues indefinitely… this is literally impossible to cure!”
After that, even though they knew it would be impossible to find a cure, they still couldn’t give up so easily as they were the best hope the whole humanity had and more importantly, their families’ lives were on the line, so they began to research the matter with everything they had.
But the more they researched, the more despair began to show on their face until finally one of them could no longer control himself from muttering, “This is the end of the world… we’re all… doomed!”
