The most important step in containing the virus is to identify its cause. To do this, you need to perform investigations to determine which part of your lab generated the virus and how it spread. Additionally, you must develop strategies for preventing contact with the virus and stopping its spread. This includes steps like instituting work-from-home policies, setting up disinfection protocols and encouraging frequent hand washing.

If your laboratory has released a virus, you should take steps immediately to contain the virus. If this happens at night or on the weekend, contact local animal control and/or law enforcement to help secure the area and begin a quarantine zone until further notice.

Contact your State Department of Health, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as well as WHO for their guidance on how to handle this situation. You must also inform them promptly so they can ensure proper surveillance of the condition in surrounding animals, humans, food supplies and water systems among other points for precautionary measures including providing information on potential treatments or vaccines that may be needed later on. In addition, it is important that appropriate medical staffs get ready with personal protective equipment when intervening within an outbreak area due to exposure risks involved in handling potentially infected materials/animals etcetera – safety come first!. 

If possible create buffer zones within areas with already confirmed cases while working towards implementing preventive measures like mass-screenings for people who are at risk by taking blood or other samples tests in order identify any possible victims early before worsening happens which would make management of affected individuals even more difficult than it already is under ideal scenarios such incidents bring up! Monitor all movement into outbreak areas closely too; keep records of vehicles entering just in case tracking contacts becomes part of respond plan latter down roads; keep watchful eyes open because rapid spreading events often need lots response soon after discovery point otherwise panic takes over quickly without hesitation!.
