Tyler Leander / The Prophet
Jeevan is the paparazzo turned paramedic who attempts to save Arthur’s life after his heart attack and who comforts Kirsten after Arthur dies. Jeevan receives a phone call informing him of the upcoming epidemic from his friend Hua, and he decides to buy supplies and try to survive with his brother Frank. Over the course of the novel, Jeevan changes from a paparazzo to an entertainment journalist, to an EMT trainee, and finally to the role of a doctor in the post-collapse world. He at first believes that work should be difficult and painful, almost like an everyday battle, but Jeevan eventually comes to see that he wants to do something he believes is valuable and helpful to other people.

There had always been a massive delicate infrastructure of people, all of them working unnoticed around us, and when people stop going to work, the entire operation grinds to a halt.
