you people realize that if these movies were like real life the movie would last like 5 hours with exposition..you can't show the slow subtle signs of infection, there isn't enough time to do differential diagnosis.... all that can get explained visually by projectile vomiting or explosive diarrhea.. it doesnt have to be factual, they just have to get the point across.
If you can have him back. He could break down everything wrong in The Strain seasons, and talk about how they would handle stuff like Blue Ringed Octopus. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-ringed_octopus
@@Manuel_B. We DO know, but some people just curious what would really happen in those scenarios. That's why movies usually doesn't follow reality. To be entertaining. ;)
@@karlathompson3700 this virus is different. Its not like the pandemic on 1918, 2013. This virus not dangerous as the previous but more more infectious. It will change our lifestyle until we found the right vaccine. If only if the vaccine will be found.
@@pghbekka yup all his advice on here was wrong & what the CDC did was wrong. Of particular note on that I think is the way that countries that were successful on the virus did in fact lock up anyone exposed in quarantine facilities that were not hospitals, but rather hotels, under guard. Some like China went much further than that though. Failing to lock up the exposed lead to the world's highest death rates
I love how no nonsense he is but it doesn't totally match up with the 90% nonsense world of outbreak horror movies I wish he'd commented more on hypotheticals not just standard operating procedure
I agree, though for some reason he never really addressed a point he kept making. That you don't get locked up like in the movies. Well what would he do with zombies? Put them in a tent? I am sure they would have some kind of restraints, but okay what if you have like 50 restraints and 100 patients who are all infected with some horrible virus that makes your violent?
I went through the unit NBC defense course in the Army and we had a guy who'd studied with the CDC who happened to be nearby and who came over. We focused on nuclear and chemical weapons mostly, but he went over biological issues and back then, before 9/11, he nailed EXACTLY what would happen in an outbreak that went nationwide. He even nailed the divisions along party lines as to how each side of the aisle would handle things, the breakdown in the supply chain, even the refusal of people to wear protective gear and refusal to acknowledge the problem at all. I wish I could find him today to tell him how impressed I am that he called the current situation over 20 years in advance
Out of interest did he say anything about how other countries would respond? Really curious if he did & how close he got on them, did he predict how China would respond with really heavy handed tactics for example? How about Australia/NZ, did he predict the heavy quarantine & doing ok? I'm guessing he probably would have with all that stuff, more interesting might have been what he thought the UK would do, especially being pre-brexit & when their government was more competent & less divisive than it was by the time the pandemic happened. EU I'm guessing he also would have picked with the nationalism over supplies etc happening
@@mehere8038To be fair those are easy predictions. Aus/Nz already had a good understanding of quarantining and zero tolerance to imported flora and fauna. And calling Chinese government tactics "heavy-handed" is just calling them Chinese government tactics. 😁
@@zombieblood1675 in fact many governmental warning signs and drills throughout the world are carried out to keep prepared in such events.

@@Cmonbruh8549 But we didn't all wear masks. The United States wasn't shut down in this way like we are now. Everything didn't come to a close here. It may have been bad in other places but not nearly like it is now. They are calling Covid a once in a hundred year pandemic. H1N1 wasn't.
@@Cmonbruh8549 It's the pandemic that most living humans will have a frame of reference for, especially since COVID already killed plenty of the boomers who survived the Spanish Flu.
My prediction is that similar to afternoon Hollywood is just going to ignore diseases as a topic for like 10 years. Again, similar thing happened during 9/11. Where like in the 90s you would constantly see buildings in skyscrapers blowing up and then once we saw the real thing unless it was a documentary or recreation of 9/11 like that disappeared for like almost a decade because nobody wants to touch it now that we've seen the real thing. Kind of like why nobody actually uses cell phones in films the way people actually use them where they're using their apps all the time because people don't want to focus on like the banal horrific reality of their lives unfortunately.
yea it was dope. you could see the fire in his eyes. must have sacrificed blood, sweat and tears to gain all that knowledge. one day i'm gonna be an expert like him, but not today
I was just thinking that lol. But in his defense there hasn't been a worldwide pandemic in a long time & no one knew our healthcare professionals were vastly under stocked for one
1:15 "You notice that she's not wearing any eye protection and the guy right behind her is... Some gloves, some others without gloves. It's total chaos. It's a mess. That's pure Hollywood fiction." Ahh, October of 2019. Such an innocent time.
@Cpt Dinosaur So? I still would love to see how they compare. Science is ever evolving, we are always learning knew things. So it would be interesting to see how the views on disease has changed involving latest data.
Cpt Dinosaur that’s the difference between science and conspiracy theory: conspiracy twists facts to suit theories; while with science, we twist theories to suit facts
I mean, it's depressing in how bad the reality of managing an outbreak under a anti science political agenda is. You can't repeatedly cut the funding of your pandemic response, and then desperately try and downplay a pandemic because you're afraid of not getting reelected if, like, pandemic things happen and expect the CDC to be able to do its job. All the things he's talking about, he simply failed to take into account that the CDC can only be as effective as they are allowed by the state.
@@Cmonbruh8549 It _is_ dangerous, because it spreads before it can kill you. And because it spreads so fast, hospitals are overwhelmed, so more and more people can't get treated, so more people eventually die. That's why diseases that kill slower kill more than extremely lethal pathogens like Ebola. Ebola kills too quickly to spread properly.
I just learnt something new. Was about to correct you on spelling uncontrollable. Thought I'd double check first and for Americans incontrollable is uncontrollable.
My favourite on that was the tv doctors who were doing interviews with masks around their necks & other PPE on for show, while sitting in their office within the hospital. That was during the supply shortages, so that PPE wasn't put on for the interview, it was stuff they had been wearing in covid wards, but then left the ward & walked all the way to their office still wearing, so as to do the interview on tv, as the "expert" on infectious diseases. Corridors between wards is bad enough, but offices are normally in completely different sections of the hospital & it would have been SO easy for them to have removed the PPE to prevent contaminating the entire path they took! Meanwhile in Australia, all press conferences & interviews with doctors were conducted outdoors, with good ventilation & the professionals wearing no PPE for effect, just wearing regular clothes or whatever was actually appropriate for the job they were doing at the time, no attempts to make them look "credible" in stereotypical clothing, they just used their words & scientific facts & stats to give that impression without the need for props & every transmission case prior to mass vaccinations being completed was traced in Australia, a couple happened in hospitals & there was serious consequences for those involved. I hate to think how many transmission cases happened in American hospitals!
"Contagion" was one of the best movies i've ever seen. It wasn't your Quadruple-A Multibillion Comic-Book-Adaption-Sci-Fi-Full-CGI-we-have-all-A-List-celebs we-could-get" movie. And that's one of it's greatest strenghts imho. It's bleak and close to a what could be scenario.
Yup. PPE? Sure, I know what personal protective equipment is. PCR tests? Absolutely, have had a couple of those done myself, thank you. At this point we know all the 'lingo'
The De-contamination before seeing E.T. makes a lot of sense. E.T. is sick and the doctors don't want to give him anything more than he already has, or he'll die. The protection is as much for him as it is for the humans-so they'd de-contaminate going both ways
The fact that people were watching this when it came out thinking how scary it would be if this happened & then it happened just months after this video was released is honestly chilling to think about
We were due. It had been almost exactly 100 years since the last one with this sort of reach...though that was hugely driven by WW1. The US troops brought it to Europe....
I love how Wired calls attention to these people with very hard-earned careers, who have proved they're the best and let's them share some of that knowledge with us. I never would have known any of this, and it's all so cool
Chance McWilliams thanks for saying so. If you want to learn even more about Brian and his work, check him out in this video we put up last year: ua-cam.com/video/BPLZOFIwoZs/v-deo.html
Yeah, it’s almost like they’re some kinda huge media brand with a vast reach. Or something. But seriously, if I tried to put something like this together, half the episodes would just be, like, my hippie roommate, breaking down how other people’s diets are all actually the wrong diet. Or about all the people who don’t care for their pets to the exact, unrealistic degree she seems to think that she would. D:
In all the pandemic movies, none of them featured governments/politicians denying the existence/severity of the virus. Guess they must have though back then that such a thing would just be too unrealistic...
guess you weren't paying attention to what happened in contagion huh? It was at the very least hinted at & straight out conspiracy thinking at top levels of government & the CDC was openly shown, as was fake "cures" that made everything worse & that large corporates backed for financial gain, despite knowing full well they were fake & going to cost lives
*CDC expert:* Talks about the inaccuracy of all medical staff not wearing proper protection. *Actual medical staff in 2020:* Do not have access to proper protective items. 😞
It's the same thing I wondered. If such a large pandemic would break out: Would we limit medical staff based on our equipment or risk it and send people in being unprepared and underprotected? It seems like the latter is indeed the case.
@@Sagittarius_Dec.1.2009, in truth, the CDC had a pandemic preparation/response team but Trump's administration fired all of that in 2018. So it's more like... Hollywood & CDC: This is serious! Republicans: "FaKE nEwS!1!! HoAZX!"
@@Sagittarius_Dec.1.2009 The EU is screwed, because it has plenty of small entry points, with close proximity to other communities. I don't think it ever stood a chance. The US and North America could have slowed down their outbreaks, had they better handled our entry points better. And the 2 months warning to prep our manufacturing.
To be fair, in E.T, decontamination _before_ entering the room is also required. Not to keep the crew safe, but to keep _E.T._ safe. Who knows what Earthborne pathogens can do to an alien?
Mr. Amman was fantastic! I loved his concise explanations and his dry sense of humor. I really think the CDC should use him in public relations and outreach programs.
My science teacher decided it would be a good thing to show us. It was highly entertaining, finding out about how viruses are spread and how terrifying it is
Just wait another 50 years and we get a romanticized movie called "outbreak" where the presidents press briefings are actually coherent, there is PPE for everyone, the heroes stand uncomfortably close to each other on multiple occasions and in the grocery store scenes there's toilet paper on the shelves
@@i3rucei3ruce well, he may have a xenophobe tendency , so he doesn't care about ET health , but i guess you think its good not to contaminate ET with earth virus (WAY TOO LATE , i would say. )
It is probably too late, but you might aswell decontaminate beforehand anyways just in the slight chance that the ET didnt already catch anything, atleast not anything fatal, so you make sure you dont introduce something new that would be fatal or which could together with something he already has be fatal. Having 2 diseases is worse than 1 afterall.
That's why I like the movie "Contagious", it's very similar to what happened when covid-19 hit. And thank God that covid-19 is not as fatal as the virus in the movie and if it was, the exact same would happen in real life
This 'I want to die' thing is so cliche. If you really wanted to die, you would of already done it already. Stop trying to be an edgy foompaloof. Anddd..I understand people have depression and reasons to want to die, but if you're really gonna say 'I wanna die', at least have a valid reason for it. I rest my case.
se refiere a que una pandemia tan letal no se trasmite globalmente porque mata al huesped de manera muy rapida, el caso cov es todo lo contrario un virus muy contagioso con muy poca letalidad.por esa misma razon es que es tan peligroso ironico pero cierto.
Pandemic expert: "if this were real life everyone would have proper PPE" Real life: insufficient quantities of PPE for medical personnel, people making DIY respirators on UA-cam
@Kevin Prima ??? Do you have something against the CDC? No he made a living keeping the public safe and aware. Ignorance is bliss but dangerous. Awareness can be scary sometimes sure, but it keeps you and those around you safe. My classmates and I were able to understand the need for hygiene and preventing the spread of diseases at the young age of 8 thanks to him. Most kids that age still eat random stuff off the floor.
"You see people shaking hands, and that doesn't occur in an outbreak area" I feel sorry for Brian, he seems like he had a lot of faith in humanity I wonder how he's doing today :(
Contagion is one of those movies that really freaked me out during the start of the pandemic because of how coincidental the spread of that disease in that movie was to how the corona virus was.
@@ezequielmondada6427 No, I think it was based on the Nipahvirus. Similar though! But definitely not the same - note all the encephalitis type symptoms prominent in Contagion. Also, the disease in Contagion was quite a bit deadlier than our current pandemic. There's loads of stuff that the movie predicts very well though, like the focus on false cures, the panic in the general population, and the race for a vaccine (although that bit is a little bit Hollywood, when she injects herself to test the vaccine and that ONE person is enough to get it put into use, that wouldn't happen.. although I do think our high standards of efficacy and safety would be lowered the more deadly the disease we face. In fact I'd hope so! Imagine a virus escapes that kills 80% of the people it infects... if that happened, we shouldn't wait too long for clinical trials, we'd be desperate to try anything).
@@JT29501 yea I didn't compared the virus of the movie to be the real one, I think they say it was a coronavirus inspired in the coronavirus know at that times the virus of SARS and MERS, and the other paragraph yes I totally agree with you.(Sorry if I write wrong English is not my first language).
@@ezequielmondada6427 Yeah, the deadliness of the virus in Contagion is definitely similar to SARS or MERS. It's interesting how generally viruses seem to need to find a sweet spot between deadliness and contagiousness to kill lots and lots of people! Of course that isn't guaranteed going forward but it does seem to be useful as a general rule of thumb. And don't worry, your English is great!
I suppose he was thinking of all the implications. While viruses are not living things on their own, finding an ET virus would prove that life exists elsewhere. Just this would be mind blowing. Would they be carbon based? What are they coding for. Can these viruses be studied in order to better fight our own... he is mind blown by the number of new fields of research that could be opened in one stroke. Imagine him at 30 :-) enthusiastic, dedicated and full of energy. He might have clapped his hands in wonder or even delight.
A revisit might be interesting given the last two years of COVID. Despite inaccuracies for the sake of drama, pacing, etc., Contagion seems remarkably prescient.
If anything, it would be like in the last of us where you slowly have your bodily functions taken over by the infection. So you lose your humanity and turn into a feral monster.
Magicsword89 I think his comment was implying that the cdc guy knew zombies existed and had seen them cuz of the way he bluntly said it doesn’t happen that fast.
@@GHST-jv8th what's with the emojis? Also the joke was that the dood siad it TYPICALLY doesn't happen that fast, implying that there are examples in real life
I’m sure there will be one if he survives, kinda morbid but also I’m sure he’s working intensely currently so it might be a bit until he has time and energy to do another video.
This summer I did a camp the CDC offers called the “Disease Detective Camp” and we learned all about these sorts of things. I love this guy and everything he’s talking about was covered over the week long course. Loved this!
After working as a lab tech in a lab for several years I thought I was so great at pointing out the contamination flaws in these movies but man, you nailed it! I missed so much! Good thing I'm retired now.
In a way, Contagion is maybe the scariest move I've ever seen, even more so than a true horror movie. You can tell they tried to get the details as realistic as they could. Truly terrifying movie than could one day be a reality.
I keep hearing medical specialists say that Contagion is a good example of the truth about epidemics and pandemics. So technically we have reach pandemic levels but the news stations are silent.
Many of these "mistakes" (different level of PPE between health workers, infrared thermometers touching people and becoming fomites...) were actually witnessed during our current COVID-19 pandemic.
First, you are correct. Second, are you educated in public health? I'm just curious because virtually no one uses the word "fomite" unless they have some experience with it.

I mean, it's depressing in how bad the reality of managing an outbreak under a anti science political agenda is. You can't repeatedly cut the funding of your pandemic response, and then desperately try and downplay a pandemic because you're afraid of not getting reelected if, like, pandemic things happen and expect the CDC to be able to do its job. All the things he's talking about, he simply failed to take into account that the CDC can only be as effective as they are allowed by the state.

"This would never happen, people would not go and contaminate hallways in the hospital"
COVID-19 "hold my beer"
Hold my corona
My favourite on that was the tv doctors who were doing interviews with masks around their necks & other PPE on for show, while sitting in their office within the hospital. That was during the supply shortages, so that PPE wasn't put on for the interview, it was stuff they had been wearing in covid wards, but then left the ward & walked all the way to their office still wearing, so as to do the interview on tv, as the "expert" on infectious diseases. Corridors between wards is bad enough, but offices are normally in completely different sections of the hospital & it would have been SO easy for them to have removed the PPE to prevent contaminating the entire path they took!
Meanwhile in Australia, all press conferences & interviews with doctors were conducted outdoors, with good ventilation & the professionals wearing no PPE for effect, just wearing regular clothes or whatever was actually appropriate for the job they were doing at the time, no attempts to make them look "credible" in stereotypical clothing, they just used their words & scientific facts & stats to give that impression without the need for props & every transmission case prior to mass vaccinations being completed was traced in Australia, a couple happened in hospitals & there was serious consequences for those involved. I hate to think how many transmission cases happened in American hospitals!
Contagion is one of the scariest movies I've ever seen. The way it's shown matter-of-fact and unflashy makes it more unsettling in its groundedness.

*CDC expert:* Talks about the inaccuracy of all medical staff not wearing proper protection.
*Actual medical staff in 2020:* Do not have access to proper protective items. 😞
It's the same thing I wondered.
If such a large pandemic would break out: Would we limit medical staff based on our equipment or risk it and send people in being unprepared and underprotected? It seems like the latter is indeed the case.
Hollywood: This is serious!
CDC: Don't worry.
@@Sagittarius_Dec.1.2009, in truth, the CDC had a pandemic preparation/response team but Trump's administration fired all of that in 2018.

And the 2 months warning to prep our manufacturing.

It is probably too late, but you might aswell decontaminate beforehand anyways just in the slight chance that the ET didnt already catch anything, atleast not anything fatal, so you make sure you dont introduce something new that would be fatal or which could together with something he already has be fatal. Having 2 diseases is worse than 1 afterall.

Contagion is one of those movies that really freaked me out during the start of the pandemic because of how coincidental the spread of that disease in that movie was to how the corona virus was.
The virus of the movie was in fact a coronavirus
@@ezequielmondada6427 No, I think it was based on the Nipahvirus. Similar though! But definitely not the same - note all the encephalitis type symptoms prominent in Contagion. Also, the disease in Contagion was quite a bit deadlier than our current pandemic.
There's loads of stuff that the movie predicts very well though, like the focus on false cures, the panic in the general population, and the race for a vaccine (although that bit is a little bit Hollywood, when she injects herself to test the vaccine and that ONE person is enough to get it put into use, that wouldn't happen.. although I do think our high standards of efficacy and safety would be lowered the more deadly the disease we face. In fact I'd hope so! Imagine a virus escapes that kills 80% of the people it infects... if that happened, we shouldn't wait too long for clinical trials, we'd be desperate to try anything).
@@JT29501 yea I didn't compared the virus of the movie to be the real one, I think they say it was a coronavirus inspired in the coronavirus know at that times the virus of SARS and MERS, and the other paragraph yes I totally agree with you.(Sorry if I write wrong English is not my first language).
@@ezequielmondada6427 Yeah, the deadliness of the virus in Contagion is definitely similar to SARS or MERS. It's interesting how generally viruses seem to need to find a sweet spot between deadliness and contagiousness to kill lots and lots of people!
