Humans do not know if they will be infected, but if they are then there is no stopping them from becoming insane and bloodthirsty. This is the story of a family that is trying to survive in a world where this disease is quickly killing everyone and everything they have ever known. They will keep struggling on even though it seems that they are alone, with no one left willing to help.
