"As the situation worsens on Coruscant, now entering the 4th day of the epidemic, riots break out between travellers, anti-Alliance supporters and the authorities as they try to maintain the quarantine on the the beleaguered Capital." "While the death toll of the virus has not grown as large as initially feared, with the current count only 1,284 dead, a cure has not yet been discovered, and yet another Senator, also a noted biologist has fallen victim. The greater tragedy by far is the approximately 4000 injured or killed in the skirmishes with security forces, or in accidents like the crash of the ship "Hapan Princess" who attempted to circumvent the quarantine early this morning. To combat these breaches of the quarantine, reserve forces have been called to active duty and various districts have been forcibly closed to stabilize the system. The Senate will convene an emergency session later today to determine if martial law will be put into effect. To date, there has only been 7 reported cases of infections of this disease off world."
