At the end of 2019 the Coronavirus pandemic began its global take-over, the world had to react fast to try and stop the spread. A project sprung up overnight, to create a megalab large enough to cope with never before seen testing requirements. 

The project would be complex, intricate, and require a quick delivery. It relied on successful placement of a series of moving parts, each of which was vital to the completion of every level of the project. 

A game of Tetris, with lives at stake.
