Bruce Davidson, spokesman for the Concerned Walkerton Citizens, was cited as saying he will ask health officials to take blood and stool samples from everyone in the community so an accurate understanding of the health of the community can be gained, adding, "The community is battered, bruised and traumatized."

Though there is debate as to whether or not Nguyen was a microbiologist or a technician, it is known that the lab where he worked had just successfully crossed the DNA of mousepox and smallpox to produce a highly virulent new disease.
There would be a strong likelihood that any one of the participating microbiologists would have recognized their own work and come forward, exposing the deliberate creation of the organism.
Had the microbiologists not met with untimely deaths, their specialties in microbiology might have qualified them to effectuate a quick cure, something obviously unwanted by the disease's creators.

It may not mean anything to anyone except die-hard movie buffs, but we're compelled to mention that the screenplay is loosely based on Chris Marker's 1962 experimental classic, LA JETEE.
It was an act of sheer hubris to remake Marker's futuristic meditation on temps perdu--told almost entirely in still images--as a big-budget, mainstream picture starring Bruce Willis.
