Infectious disease Contagion The novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak broke out in Wuhan in 2020. Look back at this rather professional disaster film. Blue-gray tones, calm narration, like a documentary showing the entire process of the development of the epidemic in front of us. The city was closed overnight, the masses panicked, supplies were scarce, and the hospital was overcrowded. The scenes in the film seem distant and familiar. The ruthless virus that originated from bats, the citizens who panic and run on medical resources, the media who profit from spreading rumors, the politicians who maintain stability above everything else, the trade unions who protect themselves, the difficulties we face are never just the disease itself. . Of course, there are also disease control experts who are reckless with their own lives, scientific researchers who test medicines by themselves, the army who can win wars under the command of the party, and countless front-line medical staff. Their perseverance and dedication are even more worthy of respect.
Finally, everyone was in isolation, waiting for the vaccine to defeat the disease, but countless happy families could not be reunited. The lost lives and countless historical experiences remind us to never forget to reflect and reform, how to avoid contact with pathogenic microorganisms that may exist in wild animals, and how to curb the spread of diseases earlier, we still have a lot of work to do.
