I KNOW! It was very realistic, albeit a bit clinical. At least it wasn't overly dramatic, like "Outbreak" - no last minute miracles. I didn't get the point of the whole Chinese village and the French doctor, but overall a very good film.

My daughter is a nursing student, and when we saw it she had just finished taking Microbiology. One of her assignments was to go around the building and swab public areas to see what you could grow. My daughter swabbed the elevator button. I will never look at one the same way.
