Viral Outbreak, Day 2

Just when I thought that the news of the train wreck was slowing down, something else just seemed to pop back up. According to the news, the homeless man who had been hit by the train did have a disease. What kind of disease? No one really knows for sure. However, it is spreading through our water supply. That really scares me, because I could mindlessly drink a glass of our own water and be contaminated, and not really think about it until it was too late. I would think that this information would be circulating around the school, but a lot of people are just ignoring it. They seem to be daydreaming all the time, who knows about what. Either that, or maybe they're infected, like that homeless man was.... Thankfully none of my friends or family are acting this strange. I would be devastated if they were infected. This disease has really got me wondering...can we really stop this?
