      If you haven't read "After On", by Rob Reid, it's time.

      We're closer to that scenario than was expected when the book was written.

      If you like Hitchhiker's, try "Year Zero" by Rob Reid. Very similar style IMO. Also "After On" by the same author is also fantastic.

      Reminds me of Rob Reid's 2017 novel After On, which included a subplot featuring a man-made virus.
