During the holiday, I watch the movie Contagion that come in 2011. The director is Steven
Soderbergh and it writer is Scott Z. It widely praised for its realistic portrayal of global pandemic
scenario. The virus depicted in the movie is many times deadlier than the one responsible for COVID
-19. Still, Contagion has important information to impart on present-day viewers as we collectively
weather COVID-19.
The Contagion fictional virus name is MEV-1. This virus has never been in the human population
before. MEV-1 attacks both the lungs and brain, causing headaches and seizures in addition to
coughing and fever. Beth Emhoff an executive who contracts the first documented human case of
MEV-1 on the south coast of China and then brings it to the United States.
