Nury Televaldi


Yesterday was a tough day. I had to travel from China to Tibet and it was really hard to get around because China's infrastructure is horrible. Once I arrived in Tibet I meet Nury at a local cafe. It was very crowded which surprised me because in most areas out of Europe and the U.S. there were not that many people. I asked Nury about his days as a smuggler, it was really hard to get him to talk about his past. For some reason i kept thinking he was suffering form PTSD or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Nury showed me a picture of him in his old days. I asked Nury about his smuggaling and he would say that if the cash was good, he would do it. I asked him what it was like to know that he may have caused the worldwide outbreak. He said he didnt know he was transporting the virus at the time. I asked him where he sent a business man. Looks like I'm headed to Krygyzstan.

I agree with you, that Nury probably cause this whole madness. Just think about it, if the virus just contained to one place, like China where it originated, we could just execute all the infected and this would all be over. I think Nury should be arrested and sent to death for all the deaths he has caused. I saw in your report that air trafficking was a big thing, and spread helped spread the infected even further. Do you think this was worse than ground transporting?
