We, the Mysterons, will cause a germ war throughout Earth! (short story)

We, the Mysterons, will cause a germ war throughout Earth! was a Captain Scarlet short story printed in TV Century 21 in 1968 as part of that year's Captain Scarlet Annual.

It was set almost-exclusively in Unity City, the capital of the World Government first introduced in The Daleks story Duel of the Daleks, thus constituting a crossover with the Doctor Who universe.
