Contagion (2011)
7/10
They always knew
17 December 2020
People are calling it a visionary movie but the scientists and epidemiologist always knew how the virus like this will spread. They had many examples of it. I have watched a few videos on this topic and they have been predicting possible pandemics, like COVID-19, for many years. Even the makers of this movie got inspired because of a TED talk by one epidemiologist, named Brilliant. They used his consultation for the movie. In one of the talks I watched, one guy even predicted the shortage of toilet papers in case of any pandemic. It is just normal people, who don't seem to understand, until they face the situation. It makes me wonder about other issues like climate change etc. Will people also understand them when it will be too late?
