Code Blue

Code Blue is a declaration of emergency used by Peak Facilities when a highly dangerous contagion, infection, gas, substance, mineral, creature, plague or disease has escaped containment. Code Blue is usually only declared when the subject in question has spread throughout a large section of the facility or escaped the Hot Labs. The response to a Code Blue is too deliberately damage or cripple systems throughout the facility with the goal of destroying the escaped subject or preventing its escape. The Code Blue signal is also relayed to nearby population centers, like Port Hanshan, so as to have all transport to the facility ceased to prevent endangerment of the civilian populace.

A Code Blue was declared during phase one of the Battle of Peak 15 at the Peak 15 facility, when rachni test subjects managed to breach containment and overwhelm the ERCS security.
