This BBC 4 documentary aired on our TV tonight (29/3/2020), initially I thought it was one of those ‘end-of-the-world’ movies, but then found it to be a science program posing the pandemic ‘what if’ scenario.

It was made in 2017, and in 2020 is scarily prophetic.

It supposes a ‘moderate’ level pandemic akin to the Spanish Flu … for 2020, take two: Coronavirus-19 is about twofold worse!

The lessons are there: isolation, segregation, cleanliness, time lines, etc.

Typical of BBC science programs, it's clearly supported by reasonable assumptions and technical experts in their fields.

Suggest taking a look ...
