BSG BTP The Gods Shall Lift Those Who Lift Each Other pt 2
Chapter Two
“Do these idiots know nothing of basic hygiene? Didn't this get covered in elementary school health class? Don't everybody share the same glass!”
“How many?” Bill asked as he followed Cottle on his rounds.
“About half of your pilots and two-thirds of the deckhands.”
Picking up the phone, Bill had himself connected with the office of the President. Billy answered.
“There's a bug going around the Fleet. Many of the pilots and deck crew of Galactica have it. For the time being, it would be best if the President canceled any shuttle trips to minimize her risk of exposure.”
Bill's gaze locked onto Hotdog sitting on a gurney across the way just as the pilot coughed into the crook of his elbow.
From the coughing in the background, even before Billy responded, Bill knew.
“You're a little late. She's already got it.”
