II: A New Danger
Once the news of the spider outbreak in Arizona reached the rest of the US, widespread panic erupted. Arizona was declared a state of emergency, and a new sign was created to warn of the spider. News reports with information on the spider were transmitted. Symptoms of the toxin included insomnia, sweating, vomiting, trouble breathing, and death. Medical reports of deaths from the spider venom and bites were reaching the thousands. Every medical treatment was used with no luck. The US was running out of options as the toxin spread throughout the country and the spiders started to hitchhike on modes of transportation like trucks and planes and reproduced at their destinations. Over a quarter of the states were infected, and declared a state of emergency.
