Federative Republic of Brazil
 * Government:
 * The government remains silent about the situation in the US since it's afraid of being linked to the censorship, and doesn't know how the people would react to an unintentional leak.
 * The maximum legal amount of ammunition per civilian-owned firearm is doubled due to popular request. This is a response to the Zalgo sightings in Colombia and Ecuador, the popular demand for more ammunition was faked.
 * The Ministry of Health issues a note discouraging travel to Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela and Central America, due to a suspected Yellow Fever outbreak. Actually, it's for the Zalgos. However, no ban is enacted.
 * BAP members, higher government officials and Armed Forces officers create the Elicont Protocol (See BAP topic for more details)
 * Military:
 *  Five  Two extra battalions are deployed in the Amazon to  search for Zalgos in the border  combat venezuelan guerrillas that may have crossed the border illegally.
 * The Marine Corps recieve special training for four weeks to deal with "unusual issues". The themes were nuclear warfare, refugee crisis, zombie disease outbreak and extraterrestrial invasion. Although people thought it was laughable, the Marines executed the trainings with seriousness. When asked for the reasons, Admiral Constantino said in a humorous tone: "The world is a strange place, we must be ready for anything. You won't laugh when the Marines save you from aliens." Two of these special trainings were decoys. The Admiral's words were carefully chosen to take the focus away from the zombie part. There was no further questioning, only memes about an alien invasion on Brazil showing it was successful in diverting the focus from the zombie training.
 * Economy:
 * The sanctions on Korea cause an increase on agropecuary exportions to the country.
 * Brazilian-designed-and-made electronics become more valuable in the international market.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Brazil offers to mediate any peace negotiation between Russia, Kazakhstan and the communist rebels.
 * Blue Amazon Project:
 * A secret special force called "FCZ", made of COpEsp and Marines, is formed. They will take care of the Zalgo-related military affairs.
 * The research base in the Amazon is fully functional. It's guarded by FCZ personnel and is only accessible through a small, secret airfield. To land there, a password is necessary. Unauthorized landing is strictly forbidden, punishable with execution on spot. Anyone entering must go through a three-day quarantine separated from the main complex. People with physical or mental changes within the three days must NOT be allowed in the main complex. FCZ soldiers who enter in contact with Zalgos in missions must incinerate their clothes, take a chemical shower and be put in quarantine. Policies must assume maximum infection risk until more details about infectivity are discovered. Zalgos out of containment must be killed on sight.
 * Due to uncertainty about the situation in USA, any brazilian personnel working there must be ready to leave at any moment to be stationed into our own base.
 * A suspected Zalgo instance has been arrested while trying to drive from Venezuela to Brazil. The person was still conscious, but, according to the soldiers, "looked infected". She was sedated and sent to quarantine.
 * Research results on the venezuelan Zalgo, named Z-01:
 * A pathogen has been identified to be the cause of Zalgo. Type of pathogen still unknown. Samples has been isolated to try to identify the type of pathogen. Team Alpha is looking for capsid interactions to find a virus. Team Bravo is testing for peptidoglycan cell walls to find a bacterium. Team Charlie is looking for spores and growth pattern in healthy samples to find a fungus. Each team recieves $700,000 for the research.
 * Z-01 showed no signs of decomposion, which were supposed to appear based on the time of death. However, some of its skin turned gray and others black.
 * Any and all research results are not to be shared with other countries or institutions until further orders.
 * Operation Eyeless:
 * In response to the increasing cases of Zalgo in northern South America, patrol around the Amazon area intensifies.
 * For now, the dense jungle and low population density are protecting us, but we fear it spreads through the Pacific Coast and then reach us through the more populated Centre-South. Therefore, BAP hackers watch closely about any case of Zalgo in Peru and Bolivia. Two FCZ teams are deployed in Acre, ready to capture Zalgos detected in Peru and Bolivia ASAP.
 * The instance in Colombia is traced to be in a civilian hospital. A mission to capture the Zalgo is authorized. The audio log follows:
 * Mike: (whispering) Main hall, clear.
 * Lucas: Are you sure the security isn't watching us through the cameras?
 * Martins: Doesn't matter, we won't last long here. Besides, we don't look like criminals.
 * Lucas: What if they think we're criminals with night vision and full military outfit?
 * Mike: Shut the fuck up, we're going up the stairs. What's the room again?
 * Silva: 229, second floor.
 * (two minutes of silence, only steps heard.)
 * Mike: Hallway, clear. Look for the number.
 * Martins: There, 229.
 * Lucas: Oh, shit. The door is open.
 * Mike: Weapons tight. We want her alive, if possible.
 * (silence)
 * Mike: Damn it, she's not here. Base, we have a...
 * Silva: Are those screams?
 * (Rushed steps. Yelling becomes audible.)
 * Lucas: What the hell? Three of them?
 * Mike: Base, we have three instances of Zalgo, extraction of alive cases impossible. Over.
 * Command: WHAT? Get the hell out of there. We're calling the Colombian Army to quarantine the hospital.
 * Mike: You heard him, let's...
 * (Gunshots and screams)
 * Silva: NO! SHIT!
 * Martins: Screw this, I'm killing those assholes.
 * Mike: Just leave this goddamn place!
 * (Rushed steps and gunshots)
 * Silva: No way, they're there!
 * Lucas: How many of them are there? The whole fucking hospital?
 * Mike: I don't care. The helicopter is in the door, just get the fuck out.
 * (More gunshots. Inhuman screams.)
 * Lucas: FUCK!
 * (Helicopter engine audible and getting closer)
 * Mike: There it is! Get into the helicopter!
 * (More gunshots)
 * (Gunshots cease. Helicopter engine close.)
 * Mike: Base, we're getting out. We... (wheezing) Just bomb this goddamn hospital. It's doomed.
 * [End of the audio log]
 * The two soldiers directly assaulted by Zalgos, private Lucas and Corporal Silva, were quarantined. The hospital's fate is still undecided. Both governments from Brazil and Colombia are trying to hide the incident.
 * Elicont Protocol: To be used ONLY in case of major Zalgo infection in Brazil and/or impossibility to keep the matter secret. Martial law and State of Exception are to be decreted. Airports and roads connecting Brazil to other countries are to be shut down. People must be instructed on how to avoid infection, based on how much knowlege of the Zalgos is avaliable by the time the protocol is activated. The Army must stabilish quarantine zones outside of major urban centres (Not ready, government still working on it). Killing on sight of suspected Zalgo instances will be authorized. An evacuation plan to government officials and Armed Forces officers will be created within the next months.
