Spoilers ahead

In a desperate effort to save his daughter, Alicia, from the effects of progeria, Dr. James Marcus, the founder of the Umbrella Corporation, boldly decided to use an untested embryonic project developed by his colleague, Dr. Charles Ashford – the T-virus. With little regard for the consequences, Marcus injected both Alicia and several other afflicted children with the virus, hoping to find a cure. Unfortunately, the experiment backfired when one of the children transformed into a grotesque zombie, triggering chaos. In response, Marcus ordered the project to be terminated, erasing all data and forbidding Ashford from pursuing it further. This heart-wrenching decision would have serious repercussions, as Ashford had been hoping to use the T-virus to save his own daughter, Angela.
