Description: DOCTORS
FEAR OUTBREAK OF DEADLY DISEASE IN THE E.R. -- Fear grips Chicago when
Carter (Noah Wyle) and Abby (Maura Tierney) treat two children with
ominous symptoms that force the E.R. into quarantine until federal
disease experts arrive. As Carter fights to save the youths, the staff
is trapped with the deathly ill victims and a busload of injured and
ornery senior citizens. Media swarm the hospital and riot police guard
the exits while the restless elderly victims begin a small riot in an
attempt to escape the dangerous and stifling conditions inside.
Meanwhile, Drs. Pratt (Mekhi Phifer) and Chen (Ming-Na) -- who may have
contracted the disease -- put aside their own symptoms as they labor to
save the life of frequent homeless visitor Stan the Can (guest star
Harrison Page). Laura Innes, Goran Visnjic, Paul McCrane, Sherry
Stringfield and Sharif Atkins also star.
