Help -- Government Quarantine

I don't know if anyone is alive out there. Someone has to be there because the internet is still up...at least parts of it. My name is Brent Acuff and I am currently at the Cabela's store in Buda, TX. There are about 150 of us here, including my wife Tammie. We haven't had any contact with the outside world for six days. We've barricaded ourselves inside and stockpiled the weapons, ammo, and food. No one knows how long we will be here.

Fourteen days ago, the United States government declared a state of emergency, placing the entire country in quarantine. All roads were closed down and all air traffic was immediately grounded. A virus was apparently released into the population and was spreading exponentially through cities. Symptoms were reportedly similar to rabies, and eye witnesses said that victims apparently died within a few hours. The virus is said to be transmitted through physical contact, most notably by scratches and bites.

I don't know what's happening, but no one here is willing to go outside to find out. I have some suspicions, but am not willing to elaborate here...yet. Please, if anyone is alive out there, contact us. We need help and especially information. Is it safe? Is this virus airborn? What are the specific symptoms? Is anyone still in charge of the government? Please, anything would be helpful.

I'll try to contact you later...
