Late 2016 (Point of Divergence)
A commercial fishing boat somewhere in the vast stretches of the Pacific Ocean catches a load of tuna. The tuna are large enough to sell to countless customers worldwide: namely hotels, restaurants, cruise ships, etc. The tuna is then placed to the freezing compartment below the ship where it to be transported back to the mainland United States.

Upon cutting the tuna meat, one of the processors notices the tuna is infected with tapeworm. He reports the anomaly to the health inspector. The health inspector calls the FDA to which they inspect the parasite. Having nothing seen in their database, the FDA forwards the specimen to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia.

 * T-1: First human infection, an advocate in holidays.
 * T-2: Patient Zero goes to checkup in the University of Maryland Medical Center Midtown Campus in Baltimore, Maryland. Patient goes into a coma in the hospital due to being infected with the parasite.
 * T-3: Patient wakes up from coma and exhibits homicidal aggression. He infects several doctors, nurses, staff, patients, and security guards before being shot multiple times to the chest.

Governor Logan follows Trump's orders and declares a state-of-emergency for the entire state of Maryland. The National Guard, FEMA, and DHS are deployed to Baltimore.
