With over 325 billion birds, "the Others couldn't invent a more efficient delivery system." The virus developed within the birds( via falling excrement)and then became airborne. The 3rd Wave was spread throughout the globe by the use of birds as the carriers of the disease. Also known as the "blood plague", "the Red Death", and "the Fourth Horseman", the Others genetically engineered this virus to have an almost-perfect kill rate. The Third Wave starts as a plague that wiped out around 97% percent of the remaining human population. Third Wave: A highly contagious and lethal plague Cassie mentions the 2nd wave took out 3 billion people. This resulted in far more deaths than the first wave by a considerable amount. Cassie reasons this was because a great degree of the human population lived by the coasts. This including several major metropolises such as New York, London, Paris, Tokyo, Sydney and Los Angeles. The Second Wave was a literal wave: judging from Cassie's recount, the Others dropped some form of a metal rod from the height of the atmosphere onto one of the earth's fault lines, which then resulted in earthquakes and massive tsunami waves that wiped out all coastal cities on all seven continents.
Second Wave: Literal waves from Tsunamis flood Coastal cities
This had the effect of causing all cars and other motor vehicles to crash into each other or into buildings and brought airborne planes crashing from the sky.Ĭassie mentioned that the first wave killed around half of a million people. It was a massive EMP strike, an electromagnetic pulse, that effectively shorted out all forms of technology and objects that ran on electricity (i.e.: cars, cellphones, etc.). The First Wave, as its name implies, was the first of the five (current) waves to be used by the Others.
