Chad Evverest was an American federal health spokesman. In the November, 1950 issue of Popular Technologies, Evverest reported that a team of biochemists at Fort Greeley was working on a cure to the "European influenza", with which he hoped to inoculate every American citizen against the virus. He claimed that a cure wasn't far off, but when pressed as to how they planned to halt the virus, Evverest remained tight-lipped. He only answered in reassuring that the situation was well at hand as long as America protect its borders.
