Niels Sorensen is a Norwegian scientist who is also Patient Zero of the virus. He is frequently shown chewing on a toothpick.He experimented on himself and added his own human gene to the virus in an attempt to allow the human body to make itself immune to the virus; instead, this accidentally allowed the virus to replicate unchecked, which helped it to spread to others extremely quickly and kill quickly as well. This also allowed the virus to be used as a bioweapon. He told his boss and mentor about is self-experiment and got ridiculed and fired for his efforts; his boss later died after contact with him. Niels later kissed his wife and she immediately got cold symptoms. This caused Niels to realize that whenever he came in contact with humans or even animals, they died of the virus; he was now immune, but he was a carrier.Niels was captured by the Russians; he was the one who told the Russians about Dr. Rachel Scott and her work on the cure, which led them to her attempted kidnapping and attempt to control the virus. Dr. Scott and the samples were sent to the Russians in exchange for Chandler and Tex. Niels reminded Dr. Scott that he'd met her once at a European virology conference and told her about his boss and research. He hen asked Dr. Scott for the Primordial strain so that he cold make the cure. He was very angry that she'd already done it; the Russian admiral was angry as well, as Niels had assured him that Dr. Scott was not capable of creating the cure on her own--which was the only reason the Russians took him aboard their ship. Niels wanted to be the one to create the cure and become famous.After the Russian ship was blown up by the Nathan James crew and the Russians killed, Niels managed to sneak off the boat dressed as a Russian sailor and get ashore. He was taken in by a community of healthy survivors but the all died within hours of his arrival. He was later discovered in Florida by a group of Immunes, people who were naturally immune to the virus and considered themselves Chosen . Niels heard one of the men talking about rumors of the cure aboard the Nathan James, and he assured them it was no rumor. He helped Sean Ramsey identify the labs manufacturing the cure so that the Immunes could destroy them and cement their position of power in the world. Doing this gave Niels a sense of power and importance.Niels recognized Tex after he infiltrated the Immune compound and told the other Immunes. Tex took Niels as hostage after shooting Nathan Ramsey; Niels was shot by mistake in the process by one of the Immune soldiers. Niels was extracted to the Nathan James with the rest of the infiltration group from the ship. Show less «
