"Macrocosm" Line-by-Line

EMH: No, just the one in the mess hall. The ship is healthy. It's the crew we have to worry about. Your bones have healed, but the surrounding tissue will be sensitive for a few days.
 
THE DOCTOR: I'm afraid it's not just the ship, Captain, it's also you. You've been infected with the macrovirus. You're experiencing a high fever.
 
EMH: Your glandular system is already being affected. If I don't treat you now you'll end up like the rest of the crew. I've spent the past few hours perfecting the antigen, but I haven't tested it on a live subject yet.
 
JANEWAY: Looks like I'll have to be your guinea-pig, Doctor. The crew, why are they all in the mess hall and the cargo bays?
 
The Doctor: I was faced with an imminent epidemic.

Back in the Mess Hall narrative, The Doctor scans Torres while Paris and others are beginning to feel ill.

The Doctor: Oh, no. Doctor to the bridge. The macrovirus is aboard Voyager and it appears to be airborne. I suggest a Level 4 quarantine of the mess hall and all adjoining sections.
 
CHAKOTAY: All hands, this is Commander Chakotay. We've detected an airborne virus in the mess hall. Deck two is under quarantine. No crewmember, repeat, no crewmember is to enter or leave any section on deck two. Stand by for further instructions.
 
The EMH is in the mess hall collecting a specimen.

You hear him talk in a voice over to Janeway:

EMH: We managed to avoid a ship-wide outbreak, but every crew member on deck 2 had been contaminated. I collected a single live specimen of the macrovirus and returned to sickbay in hopes of finding a cure.
 
EMH: Excellent. That should give us the information we need to destroy the virus without killing its host cells.
