This is Triple-N.

Flu-like'. 'Panic'. 'Confusion'.

An unknown communicable illness that has cut through Kentucky communities...

... forcing evacuations, and the creation of a huge exclusion zone.

Yet STILL no concrete word on what the Knox Event is, or how it spreads.

Worse? Revelations from a Dr Jeff Galbraithe - a former scientist with the CDC.

He's reported as saying: 'America is not ready for this'.

'We haven't been ready for a long time.'

How does that sound to you on the ground at the Event boundary, Kirsty Cormick?

Well Joan, it's exactly that sort of rumor that's not helping.

People just don't know what to do, and the military don't know what to do with them.

Some have been taken to Louisville - but most?

They want to stay - in tents, in local buildings. This is their home.

Or, at least as near to their homes as the Army will allow them.

And they're angry. Real angry.

They're not tellin' us nothing!

Every day like the last!

I got a business in there, in West Point!

I got a home! A family!

I've got a dog too, and they took it for no reason at all!

We want answers!

This is Kirsty Cormick on the Knox Event line. Back to the studio.

Thank you Kirsty.

Now, coming up - the scientist that says 'it IS contained'...

... on Triple-N.
