Plot

Don and his wife Alice prepare dinner for their group of survivors in a heavily reinforced cottage somewhere in rural Rage-infected Britain. As they eat their meal they hear a young boy approach outside. Alice opens the door to let the child inside, who says he has been fleeing the infected. Moments later, a pack of the infected discover the hideout and break in, quickly overwhelming the group. Alice, refusing to leave the house without the child, begs Don to stay and help her. Don refuses and he abandons his wife. He jumps out of the window, and runs to a nearby river, where another occupant of the house is leaving by boat. Don jumps on the boat with him, and they are attacked by the Infected. The other occupant is killed in the fight, and Don escapes using the boat. Only Don survives the endeavor.


Over the course of the 28 weeks, Britain is eventually cleared of Infected, and is declared a relatively safe-zone again; an American-led NATO force begins occupying the country and flying in civilians by airliner under the command of Brigadier General Stone. Chief Medical Officer Scarlett (Rose Byrne), is startled by the arrival of children to the green zone, as she was unaware that children were being admitted. Among the children are Tammy and Andy, Don and Alice's children who were in Spain during the initial outbreak. At only 12 years of age, Andy is the youngest person in Britain. During their subsequent medical inspection, Scarlett notes Andy's heterochromia, a trait he inherited from his mother. Andy and Tammy are subsequently admitted to District 1, a heavily-reinforced, fully functional section of London in the Docklands guarded by the United States Army and a detachment of Delta Force snipers, including Sergeant Doyle (Jeremy Renner) and helicopter pilot Flynn (Harold Perrineau). They are reunited with their father Don, now head caretaker of the district. Inside their new penthouse, Don tearfully recounts his escape, leaving out several details in the process; though he doesn't tell his children that he abandoned their mother, he does tell them that she died in the attack. The next day, the two children slip out of the safe zone to return to their old home on motorscooter. While in the house, Andy makes a shocking discovery: he finds Alice. Though disheveled and hungry, his mother is still alive. The NATO units looking for them descend on the house, and Andy, Tammy, and Alice are all taken into custody. Alice, having not been a resident of the safe-zone, goes through a brutal decontamination process. Medical Officer Scarlett gives Alice a physical exam in a room with several armed guards, where she discovers a human bite wound on Alice's arm. Scarlett asks Alice if she came into contact with the Infected, but Alice remains silent. A blood test later reveals that Alice is indeed infected, but doesn't show any symptoms, except for her bloodshot eye.Somehow, she has the Rage virus, but is not susceptible to it; she is an carrier,. Scarlett implores the General to allow Alice to be studied more, because, since she is not susceptible to the virus, through her there might be a way to make a cure.

Don visits his children in a holding room, where they question him about Alice being alive. He then visits Alice in her isolation cell, and asks for forgiveness. After they kiss, the Rage virus in her saliva infects him. Now an Infected, he brutally kills her and breaks into District 1, attacking and infecting soldiers. Brigadier General Stone orders a lockdown of all the civilian areas, and for the civilians to be taken and locked in secure areas. The lockdown is put into effect, but not in time to keep Don from forcing his way into the safe-room. Don breaks through the door to attack Andy, but Andy runs into the crowd, screaming that there are infected in the room. The panicked civilians eventually break through the locked doors and proceed onto the streets, the Infected following them. Scarlett rescues Tammy and Andy from the chaos, fleeing together as the outbreak spreads to the streets.In response the outbreak, Brigadier General Stone orders Code: Red, the last resort plan of the operation; under this order, the NATO soldiers are ordered to exterminate all civilians they encounter, whether they're Infected or not. Doyle is ordered to fire into the crowd, but after seeing Andy, he abandons his post and attempts to escape District 1 with Scarlett and the children. After being attacked by snipers, Doyle recieves a call from Flynn warning him that head command called in an airstrike on District 1, and that the entire area is going to be destroyed by napalm. Doyle, Scarlett, the children, and another survivor escape the blast zone as District 1 is being incinerated. Meanwhile, large numbers of the infected escape the bombardment.

Stopping at the derelict remains of Regent's Park, Scarlett informs Doyle that the key to curing infection is in the children, who may have the same immune system as their mother. Flynn arrives by helicopter to pick up Doyle, but is shocked that Doyle is with a group of people. Flynn resolutely refuses to take anyone else. The Infected appear and pursue the group, killing the other survivor and forcing them to flee. To aid their escape, Flynn uses his helicopter rotor blades to kill dozens of Infected before leaving and designates Wembley Stadium as the new rendezvous point; however, he tells Doyle to come alone, because he won't take anyone else. The group breaks into an abandoned car to escape the infected and the clouds of poisonous gas being vented into the city. In the process of starting the car, Doyle sacrifices himself, and is killed by soldiers with NBC suits and flamethrowers. Scarlett drives into the London Underground to evade a pursuing helicopter, where she and the children continue on foot, guiding their way with the night vision scope on Doyle's rifle. When they are separated, Scarlett is ambushed and killed by Don, who attacks Andy and bites him. Tammy shoots Don and saves Andy, who remains symptom-free like his mother.
