There's an idea that some of the very old, small village stories of vampires may have in fact been rabies' outbreaks-- the whole aversion to light and trying to bite people situation. And bats are one of the top rabies carriers. I wonder if, before these old village stories, we invented the idea of vampires separately from our knowledge of rabies, or if we simply once called 'rabies' by the name of 'vampirism'.
I was really wondering why you didn't mention the ur-example of a virus that causes delirium and aggression in its host and is also spread via saliva, yeah.
Your theory about the ending is pretty spot on! The original ending has Jim die from his wounds, though this was changed because it was considered "too bleak". You can still find this version on UA-cam / in the director's cut!
First of all what's up lazy masquerade 😎. Second I think this is also the case. There's 3 endings. The released cut with Jim, Jim's deaths, and then the released cut scene without Jim. Now there's also another scene in a version of Jim's death that shows Jim hallucinating/dreaming as he's dying. I think the released cut is Jim's dream and the death scene in is true, but in poetic fashion Jim's last vision somewhat comes to reality as Selena and Hannah live in that vision finding the planes in the sky and solitude amoungst the border.
“Infected with what?!” “…… *Rage.* “ This line was the biggest highlight of the movie. Just the way he had to pause and say that one word made an impression on me for years. Great way to start a movie honestly.
Yeah it was actually from test screenings saying after everything he went through it was just too depressing of an ending so they swapped it out for a more lukewarm maybe there is hope ending
@@DrHopeSickNotes It tested terribly with the test audiences, that's why they changed it. I would also like this movie less without closure. Life's without closure, let movies give me at least some.
The graphic novel 28 Days Later: The Aftermath explains that the virus is a strain of Ebola modified on purpose but which went out of control. Hence, the symptoms. Still impossible to display symptoms so fast. 😄
@@Cazameilia They're using Ebola as a vector for an anti-rage molecule aiming at crowd control, but when the film starts, they're still trying to figure out why it is having the opposite effect. The rage comes from how they modified Ebola, not the original strain. Rabies wouldn't be effective at spreading the molecule both for crowd control and for a scary zombie scenario, because you absolutely need a bite to get infected. With Ebola infected vomit blood, which makes them even more contagious and makes them look like undead with all the blood. What's more, furious rabies is only 80% of rabies cases, lasts only 3-4 days, and is generally associated with hydrophobia, so it's inconsistent with 28 days later, and it would really look silly if you could repel 80% zombies with common water, or even the suggestion of water and the 20% left would just be paralytic. Also, rabies may take months or even years to incubate.
@@franckbrusset its a Frankenstein virus thats stated to be an ebola, rabies mix possibly with bacteria bullshitted in too, the zombies are hydrophobic right after they turn or if they retain their minds, but loose it as/if the virus takes full control
I let the idea go of it being instant in that it was genetically engineered. I know it's not super realistic but I still love it, it's mostly realistic as far as the closest thing to zombies we'll ever get in real life I think.
One Finnish name for rabies is actually "raivotauti" which literally translates to "the rage disease". Was just reminded of that when you said "the rage" is a scary name for a virus! The virus in this film strikes me as rabies cranked up to eleven.
Fun facts: The fastest incubation time on a virus would be influenza, at around 1 day, more or less. Bacteria can be even faster, depending on the load you get, with as fast as half an hour to develop the disease. One of the reasons the black death is still dangerous even with today's antibiotic is that you can go from the first infection to symptoms in less than a day and then die also in less than another day.
There have been cases during outbreaks of hemmoragic virii like Ebola and Marburg of doctors being found dead, slumped on top of equally dead patients as they treated them.
AFAIK the Norovirus incubation time is the fastest ever "recorded" which was a couple of hours (6 or so). It's also one hell of a tough and contagious virus. Withstands even the usual " limited virucidal" disinfectants. You need to go hardcore ("full virucidal") on those suckers to deactivated them
My first thought when you said that if there was a zombie apocalypse spread by a virus, we'd need to wear PPE was "Oh, dear, we're screwed, it's probably still sitting in Turkey!"
I'm so pleased that you've decided to review one of my favourite films. Thank you for all that you do. These videos definitely make my life a little better and brighter!
Great review! There is no way in hell that the rage virus would have an incubation period as quick as 10-20 seconds...IMO a virus like that would boil itself almost instantly, but lets say hypothetically the incubation time took only seconds and the infected were rampaging everywhere - In the film there were infected running around WEEKS after the initial outbreak which is impossible. The infected would drop after a few days max from exhaustion due to constant sprinting with adrenaline combined with insane fluid loss due to continuous vomiting of blood and sweating, and no nutritional intake.
There was going to be a 28 Months Later also 28 Years later, but they got cancelled, it sucks that they were cancelled, because I was looking forward to them.
Yeah the "no protection gear" thing. That was also something I hated in "The Strain" TV Series. You have highly infectious bloodworms that swim in all body fluids of the vampires. And its enough that just ONE of them gets into you. You even see it happen in one episode...and still the main characters have no friggin problem fighting whole Vampire armies with swords, knives and so on, often even in narrow corridors. Without any kind of real protection.
Worse still, the worms are extremely vulnerable to silver and we've had a silver colloid medication since the old times. Cura and vaccine right there and nobody realizes.
In the graphic novel, you can see how the survivors cover their faces and eyes for avoid that kind of stuff, like cut of an infected with a machete and his blood go inside your moth or your eyes
If I recall the Rage virus is meant to be some kind of an offshoot or mutation of the Rabies virus. Not that it explains the incubation period but the behavioral changes in the infected make slightly more sense. By the way, have you seen the show "The Knick"? It has a lot of really accurate and thoroughly researched early 20th century medical procedures and breakthroughs in it on top of being a really good, albeit medically gory, show.
Realistically speaking from that, it'd likely have had to be engineered. Probably some experiment to try hack the body from an infection as quickly as possibly, without relying on the spread of the infection but relying more on the reaction from the body, or hijacking some primal survival mechanism. To what extent we could do that is another question. As Dr Hope mentioned, we do know the body can react incredibly quickly to things, not only infections. I don't know if there are any pathways that could be hijacked quickly enough to turn someone extremely violent and primal like that. Not within mere seconds at least. Not everyone either. Some people can get violent (to the extent of committing criminal acts, including murder) from repetitive sound, imagery, touch, certain words, etc. Varies wildly. Whether there is some relation at a nervous system level between all the various triggers is the big question. Things like ASMR, Frisson, Synesthesia, Misophonia and the like may be possible to hijack chemically. If so, this virus could likely be made. Although even then, you could still probably target all of those pathways at once, that's entirely possible. Probably not now, and certainly not cheaply, we're speaking nation state bio warfare levels. It'd be hard to hide it. A typical drug costs upwards of a $1 billion, something like this would be in the multiple billions, if not hitting the double digits, given the immense amount of research that would be needed in trying to target specific pathways. As great as our understanding is, we're a while away from making good functional artificial viruses. Even our gene therapy right now is pretty shotgun-approach.
I did learn something from this video, Dr. Hope. I learned that Mother Nature can be scary. From fish eye viruses to zombie mushrooms growing on ants, it's enough to give me nightmares for days on end. Anyway, great video as usual. Cheers!
Zoonotic diseases are the bane of my family's life right now. My wife got Psittacosis and Mycoplasma infections from a sick parrot and we had to go through three doctors just to get to one who believed this infection was possible! Despite her symptoms and test results we can't find a doctor to treat the mycoplasma.
28 Days Later actually had 3 alternate endings: the "first" alternate ending which is essentially the same as the theatrical only Jim died from his GSW; the "second" which is Selena and Hannah arming up and heading back out into London after Jim dies; and a third that never got past storyboards which replaces the soldiers and castle with a shut-in scientist who delivers on the "cure to infection" broadcast, and ends with Jim sacrificing all his blood in a transfusion to cure Frank.
In the first Resident Evil it took Rain basically the entire movie to turn. Despite being bit multiple times. She may have had some sort of immunity, but because she got bit so many times, she eventually turned.
Actually Danny Boyle (the director) did it because at that time uncovered members from PETA showed all theses videos on tv, doctors doing unnecessary and worthless experiments on animals. Also the ALF was in the peak in UK around the 90’s, so he wanted to show that part to make it real and scary, and the movie was absolutely successful!
I just realized, if Jim was in a coma, shouldn't he have been mired in waste? It's not like those functions are paused. Would all the sitting body fluids have caused tissue damage and infection at least around his groin?
@@maybenaught He was being fed glucose intravenously, so he probably had no solid food to produce fecal waste. He's pretty skinny. We have no idea how long he's been lying there with nothing but a drip. At least days. And sure as hell in the final days of zombie apocalypse, no one was taking the time to run nutritional supplement into a comatose man's belly.
You know, the cause of the zombie plague in this movie because some animal activist choose to release infected animals without knowing the effects, kinda ironic to think about....
Do you mean it is ironic because if people would listen to these activists in reallife we would have far less zoonotic diseases because we wouldn't be in close proximity to the animals that give us these viruses. Also they wouldn't be held in close proximity to another in large numbers.
@Hannah Dyson hmmm ... I'm pretty sure the purpose of the research was top secret ... the activists probably thought they were getting cosmetics tested on them - or perhaps medical research for cancer etc. I think it's fairly realistic that they had no idea about the virus. But - surely, releasing hundreds of dangerous animals onto the British public is not a good idea. (and chimps are very dangerous ... they can re-arrange your face in seconds ... especially if they've been brutalised in a lab for months)
This was a really common trope in 90s movies. I haven’t seen it in a long time (maybe not since ‘28 Days Later’, actually.), but this idea that animal rights activists would break in to a lab and just release all the animals in to a city was all over the place.
@@Annie_Annie__ it was a common trope in the 90s because it was a common occurrence in the 50s and 60s when the research into the testing couldn't be done
One of my favourite movies, been watching it for years but can't believe I never thought of that ending theory (genius! Makes so much sense) in my defence though by the time the movie ends I'm always going through some anxiety due to the film's musical score, that 'in a heartbeat' arrangement does something physically to me 🙈 Thanks for covering it & really informative!
I think it’s more likely he had an Epidural hematoma which is more associated with traumatic head injuries . Subdural hematomas are mostly associated with elderlies
Yeah, my mom had two subdural hematomas (though the first one when she was like max 50 years old so not really elderly, the second one in her mid sixties so arguably elderly) and neither time were they acutely life threatening nor coma inducing. That said, the first one slowly compressed her brain to half its size and the doctor was like “how are you alive!?” So yeah if you have a headache for 6 months, don’t wait to go to the doctor for 6 months lol. And don’t drive yourself to the hospital in such a situation!
Regarding protective gear, Selena and Mark, the pair that rescues Jim at the petrol station wear masks, eye protection and thick leather jackets. Masks and eye protection to avoid blood getting into their mouths and eyes and the leather jackets to avoid bites, Selena mentions the jacket thing in the 28 Days Later comic series. Also, the virus was created as a mean to contral agression in human beings, the inhibitor was successfully created and scientists combined it with the Ebola virus for rapid spread, however, it backfired and had the total opposite effect.
Could I suggest reacting to "Emergency!"? It's pretty outdated as a show from the early 70s, but it tried pretty hard to be accurate and I think it'd be interesting to see how things have changed.
Please do The Thing from 1982. That alien acts more like a virus replicating an entire host and regenerating teeth, old scars, etc. because in one scene they check for fillings in their teeth to see if they are a copy. 38 year old Spoilers? The last scene has McCready give Child's a drink of alcohol, if you pay attention in the early movie, McCready turned them all into Molotovs. So when he gives Child's a drink it's actually gasoline. The alien wouldn't know the difference and didn't react and McCready laughs because the alien didn't react and thought drinking gasoline was normal. It's one if the best endings and movies ever made about a virus/parasite. Check out "The Thing gasoline theory" and there was also something about Child's breath not showing up in the cold because the alien doesn't breath out carbon dioxide? Something like that. We need a Doctor's opinion! Stat! 😃
Thank you for your comment. It led me to discover a reddit thread that linked me to a new author- who, among other things, wrote a short story where he tells the story of The Thing from the thing's perspective.
Jim actually did die from his wounds in the original movie, but test audiences were so depressed after all the horrible stuff in the film that they added that scene, much to the dismay of critics who liked the darker ending. In the comics, Jim still gets the short end of the stick because he gets arrested for killing the soldiers so win some, lose later?
The post-credit scene shows them trying to treat Jim, but failing. So I guess that was the original.
4 роки тому+2
It is just because we all grew fond of Jim during the movie, and he was the very definition of a human hero at the end. To have him killed with that bullet was too grim and too unjust to endure.
My favourite bit on the film is when he is walking around deserted London. We never thought that could be possible but after having to travel during the beginning of all this, this was what it was like! I have photos from one of the busiest airports in the world and we were the only flight flying that day (20 people on board too) completely empty, so creepy!
The hospitol scene is a deleted scene not included in the original movie release. The original ending was suppose to only have Selena & Hannah flagging down the plane & Jim dying at the hospital. But test audiences didn't like that Jim was killed off. So all three characters were kept alive at the end of the movie & deleted the hospital scene. But once it came out on DVD the deleted hospital scene was included
There is a different and probably more realistic cut for the ending where sadly Jim does indeed die. The virus changing behaviour thing also reminded me of a parasite which infects certain types of snails to make sure they get eaten by birds to propagate the parasite larvae in excretia. What's really interesting about that is that there was talk about this parasite also also potentially infecting humans which can make them take bigger risks, say when driving! Super interesting stuff! Great video, really enjoyed it!
I know about 28 days later and 28 weeks later, but I was not aware it was a series? I always thought it was just the 2 movies. Are there more in this “series” that I’m unaware of?
I know it’s just for the sake of easy explaining but 28 Days Later isn’t a zombie movie, though it may be categorised as such since a lot of people say it is. The infected are still alive and didn’t die when they became infected, while a person must die first before becoming a zombie. And while a zombie needs their head destroyed in order for it to ‘die’, the infected can die by blood loss, gunshot wounds, blunt trauma, starvation etc. With the RAGE virus, and I’m basing this on when someone is angry/enraged, you’re filled with adrenaline which inhibits how much pain you feel and helps to push your body past it’s normal limits. With the infected, it’s like this but all the time. When the average person is shot once or twice, they usually go into a state of shock - the infected don’t. The adrenaline in their body keeps pushing them so you’ll see (especially in the second movie) it takes multiple shots to down them. You’ll also notice how fast they run and how they can run for a long time, that’s probably the adrenaline too. It’s also suggested in the church scene in the first movie that the infected sleep, hence why you don’t see them walking around 24/7 in the streets like zombies do. Sorry that I sort of went on a whole minor spiel about this, I just really love these movies haha.
Hi Dr.Hope, I just watched your vlog. I will learn your vlog's medical vocabularies in Japanese. Thank you always for your educational talk. I am looking forward to watching your next one. I will look for the film related the medical contents.😄
A thing that struck me when I watched the movie many years ago was that the infected frequently seemed to be projectile vomiting large volumes of blood. I'm no doctor, and maybe the virus gives the infected some superhuman strength, but my gut feeling is that anyone who constantly vomits lots of blood will not live very long.
dr hope, your video quality really really improves in this past months and thank you for putting life in danger everyday for the heallth of many :D may god bless your soul
I always hate the fast incubation period in most zombie movies. I think if people got infected that fast governments would beable to quarantine areas very quickly. Where as with a long incubation period people would spread the around the world before anyone knew there was a virus.
I think that's the reason there's usually a time skip to all hell breaking loose, because if they showed the progression from the beginning it probably could be contained.
Talking about the rapid action of drugs and chemicals within the body. I have diabetes and it has always amazed me how quickly oral glucose can raise blood glucose levels after even a severe hypoglycemic episode. PS... Great videos BTW. I've watched them from the start of hour channel. Keep them coming. PPS... I saw you had a mention in the Times magazine a couple of weeks ago.
I couldn’t walk after being bed ridden for about 2 weeks. It was kind of like that scene in Kill Bill when B couldn’t walk after waking up from a coma. I had to practice walking with crutches and my blood pressure would drop when standing. As soon as I stand I get a head rush and almost fall over.
The vending machines in our local NHS hospital actually has some pretty healthy options. Fruit bags, sandwiches, sugar-free juice, things like that. But I think that's a local initiative, and not nation-wide. At least it sounds like it, by your reaction. I've just never been to any other hospital in England, where I've been past the vending machines.
28 Days Later is really the only Zombie film I like. Zombies are really overplayed in horror movies and TV, but when I watched this there was just something about it that made it seem different and more interesting.
When you were talking about the altered behaviors of the infected in the movie-- which, FYI, they aren't zombies per sè, just infected-- based on real life infections that hijack systems in your body, one thing I think of is the rabies virus. The rabies virus makes animals ravenous and their behavior changes drastically, and when a human gets bit by an animal infected by the rabies virus, if the human doesn't get vaccinated, they can also start having bizzare behaviors and then they will die because it is a fatal disease. So I think rabies is the closet thing to a zombie virus based on how it hijacks the host and then causes them to want to bite and spread the virus.
There's actually another ending that never got filmed where Frank in cured via a blood swope with Jim. Love the director's response to that, "what are you gonna do? Scrub his veins out with bleach?"
I'm a bit sick of movies where an infection manifests itself impossibly quickly like this. It's way too common. The irony is that the longer the incubation period, the more the disease can spread. Conversely, the shorter the incubation period, the less it can spread. So these movies get it completely backwards.
Well, in the case of a virus that does not incapacitate its host, it makes sense to have symptoms show up quickly if it can get cells to produce the right testosterone and adrenaline to get its host to fight (or just hijack the cells to create 1 for 1 copies of the virus and PCP at once (which would require some very advanced genetic engineering knowledge to know how to get the edits to always work the same way)). Though that still leaves the problem of not generally having enough of the strain within the saliva being spread.
Well for a realistic zombie virus, the host must be alive and not dead. But after suffering from an animal or fellow humans attacking it, I find survival of the host unlikely for a long period of time without medical intervention. In that case the only way for continued spread is a shorter incubation period where the infected host can attack others and spread it.
Yes! You have very educational content and the way you have kept us informed during the COVID pandemic has been great but I missed this kind of light material which is also educational but also fun. You should see the second one, it deals with how natural immunity would work with a virus. I think the rage virus is kind of like rabies in the way that it spreads (fun fact in Spanish the virus is called "Rabia" o "Furia" while rabies is also called "Rabia") I don't remember if they say it but a high fever can also make a patient go aggressive and fever is a symptom of rabies although it takes several days or maybe weeks to develop if I'm not wrong. Great content and it is very good to see you are doing fine, take care please.
It was mentioned 3 of 4 new infections are zoonotic. It is mostly due to how pervasive humans have become. Making housing by reducing habitats which in turn results in closer proximity giving more contact and hence chance of transmission.
I believe the Walking Dead has a pretty long incubation time comparatively. Granted, I haven't seen it in so long I don't remember if it's from a virus.
Black tide rising, by john ringo. First incubation long enough to allow global spread...a flu like illness. Followed by a dormant period, then whammy! Psycho murderous cannible phreaks...who rip off their clothes..
The film Cargo with Martin Freeman (I think it’s on Netflix) has a longer incubation period than a lot of zombie-type movies. Once people get infected in the film they set this timer watch that counts down the days/hours they have left. Although, if I remember rightly, the watch counts down to the point where the disease ‘takes over’ the person rather than counting down to when symptoms start so it’s not exactly what you guys were talking about 🤷♀️ The main character gets infected and is racing against time and symptoms trying to keep going long enough to find someone who can take care of his infant daughter before he loses himself to the virus It’s a pretty decent film - worth a watch Id say. Martin Freeman is good as usual 👍
Finally, a doctor that mentions food as a part of health. So many doctors say “diet doesn’t really matter” “the standard American diet is fine” when we know that that is BS. Most standard western diets contain little real nutrition, most people are deficient in vitamins like D, C and B, and are also mildly dehydrated and not sleeping enough.
The last time I was in a hospital the café had all sugar free, artificially sweetened drinks, which are disgusting and give me bellyache (for starters, it gets worse later) and no water. Not even cold tap water. No decaf hot drinks either (can't have caffeine either!). Suppose I could have had hot water. The whole no sugar thing needs a rethink if sweetener is going to be the only real alternative on offer. Even if it didn't make me ill, it's bloody horrible tasting stuff. (Edited because I wrote a load of nonsense at first.)
@@DrHopeSickNotes Technically they are not zombies they are infected. There is one part of the movie 28 Weeks later where a infected gets really badly wounded. With a wound that would definitely be fatal for a normal person. It's in 28 Weeks later and let's just say it involves a helicopter.
@@DrHopeSickNotes So you are from Britain and a doctor. I have a question if a crazy guy out there in the world took rabies, ebola and Covid-19 and mixed them together. Would the viruses cells just kill each other or combined and become more deadly disease that would be more deadly than Covid-19. Also, I just had a thought what are the chances of some ass hole pranking people in Britain during this Covid-19 pandemic pretending to be infected with the rage virus in Britain to scare people. A Rage Virus Prank.
fun fact, in the original screen play for the movie jim died and took with him the last hope for humanity as instead of moving to the countryside to signal for help, the remaining survivor threw sense to the wind to wage a war on the zombies
The story picks up 28 days after the release of the virus, but it wouldn't have been 28 days since he had doctors and nurses attending to him. Depending on how quickly society went down the tubes, it was probably a lot shorter time frame.
@@2EOGIY I think this particular virus is different from a "normal" zombie apocalypse infection because the incubation period is so short, and because the symptoms are so violent. I think with this virus infected people would be more likely to be taken to the police station than the hospital.
I once had a saline bag that emptied and was left too long and my blood started to travel into the bag. I don't know how far it would have got (probably depends on some physics I don't have the capacity to work out when blood pressure is factored in) but when I see empty bags in things like this and TWD, I always wonder why there's no blood hanging around in there.
Nah. The momentum for releasing that video is long gone. Understandable if he's not doing it anytime soon since he's a full-time doctor and we're in the middle of a pandemic too. Maybe once the new season drops he could pick it up again.
@@damedesuka77 Hes going to release it. Check his comments in the comment section. Currently I believed he traveled and is quarentining at home so he's got free time
I have often said the same thing about the junk food vending machines and donut shops in hospitals. There is no reason they can’t offer healthier alternatives
The original ending didn't have him appear at the end, kinda leaving it unknown. I believe they used the one with him there after studio execs or test audiences said they wanted something happier.
If you don't mind reading sub titles then The Rain is a good virus related series on Netflix which I would be interested to hear the true science behind
The guy at the start might not have been using the name of the virus, I always reckoned that given the circumstances he might have just been describing what happens to the infected in an effort to try and stop the activists from releasing the animals.
Honestly, I can relate about you talking about PPE. I'm not a doctor or in the medical field at all but whenever I'm watching movies, especially movies like these I'm wondering about where everyone's PPE is or why it's not being properly worn.
Adaptability and mutation are key rules in nature. Human beings unfortunately use them just for their own advantages :we easily forget being also rational and emotional creatures. Instincts prevail like in animals and viruses. That said, 100 % agree vending machines are generally boxes of trash in hospitals and schools as well. Stay safe 🇮🇹🍀🇬🇧
I have a theory about the speed. You mentioned getting cells to react and cause the symptoms. I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. It crosses into the brain and can cause severe cognitive effects including aggression/hostility/irritability. If this is a virus that immediately produces this specific mast cell activation feature-- TURNED UP TO ELEVEN-- All sorts of accessory reactions could happen. Including vasodilation or incredibly leaky vessels that turn the eyes red. Including extreme brain fog and aggression at once. We're talking an extremely tailored sort of... closest analog I can describe is a cytokine storm.
Probably should have mentioned the similarities with Rabies virus too... oh well.
Finish cells at work please
I was about to mention its almost identical to rabies but yeah.

Cleveland Clinic is the only hospital system I know that only has "healthy" vending machines. Meaning sugar free drinks and snacks.
Some of the hospitals in Australia have the same, or during the day they might also have a cafeteria where you can get healthy meals.
I remember seeing a vending machine with sealed fruit cups in a hospital once, which was cool
I know a hospital like that but the ones in staff only area's have the naughty stuff
In the hospital i work there are some vending machines, but to be honest when im eating or after a hard day at work i want a soda or some juice.
Hello Fellow Ohioan!
Fun facts: The fastest incubation time on a virus would be influenza, at around 1 day, more or less.
Bacteria can be even faster, depending on the load you get, with as fast as half an hour to develop the disease. One of the reasons the black death is still dangerous even with today's antibiotic is that you can go from the first infection to symptoms in less than a day and then die also in less than another day.
There have been cases during outbreaks of hemmoragic virii like Ebola and Marburg of doctors being found dead, slumped on top of equally dead patients as they treated them.
AFAIK the Norovirus incubation time is the fastest ever "recorded" which was a couple of hours (6 or so). It's also one hell of a tough and contagious virus.
Withstands even the usual "
limited virucidal" disinfectants. You need to go hardcore ("full virucidal") on those suckers to deactivated them
@@zubiac can confirm. Had norovirus twice, each time was less than 12 hours incubation
My first thought when you said that if there was a zombie apocalypse spread by a virus, we'd need to wear PPE was "Oh, dear, we're screwed, it's probably still sitting in Turkey!"
In a turkey in Turkey?
I'm so pleased that you've decided to review one of my favourite films. Thank you for all that you do. These videos definitely make my life a little better and brighter!
I'm loving how you go through every possible explanation for the virus spreading and taking effect so quickly XD nerdiness is appreciated
In french, rabies is called 'rage', wich as the same meaning as rage in english.
i can see why
On est enragés que les anglais aient volé ce mot et l'ont copié directement du français. Quelle manque de créativité! 😂😂😂😂
I'm French (I watched it in English) so I didn't really notice lol
It comes from latin rabere (rage, madness) and the English word rabies comes from the same root. Same with other romance languages.
Good call!
Great review! There is no way in hell that the rage virus would have an incubation period as quick as 10-20 seconds...IMO a virus like that would boil itself almost instantly, but lets say hypothetically the incubation time took only seconds and the infected were rampaging everywhere - In the film there were infected running around WEEKS after the initial outbreak which is impossible. The infected would drop after a few days max from exhaustion due to constant sprinting with adrenaline combined with insane fluid loss due to continuous vomiting of blood and sweating, and no nutritional intake.
There was going to be a 28 Months Later also 28 Years later, but they got cancelled, it sucks that they were cancelled, because I was looking forward to them.
I've heard Boyle wanted to create a new film in the series.
@@cinnamon4 Yeah but he dropped the project which really sucks, because it would have been awesome to see a 28 Months Later and 28 years Later.
@@hunterivey But we got 28 months later, what are you talking about?
@@anivmoreno9612 prove it, because they're were no talks about it
@@hunterivey sorry, my bad, confused weeks with months.
Yeah the "no protection gear" thing. That was also something I hated in "The Strain" TV Series. You have highly infectious bloodworms that swim in all body fluids of the vampires. And its enough that just ONE of them gets into you. You even see it happen in one episode...and still the main characters have no friggin problem fighting whole Vampire armies with swords, knives and so on, often even in narrow corridors. Without any kind of real protection.
Worse still, the worms are extremely vulnerable to silver and we've had a silver colloid medication since the old times. Cura and vaccine right there and nobody realizes.
It was a terrible show
Mad Hatters in jeans I guess it has to do with attracting a wider audience by showing more skin 🤷♂️
In the graphic novel, you can see how the survivors cover their faces and eyes for avoid that kind of stuff, like cut of an infected with a machete and his blood go inside your moth or your eyes
Top marks for the arrow placement preserving Jim's dignity when pointing out the lines during the icu scene :D
If I recall the Rage virus is meant to be some kind of an offshoot or mutation of the Rabies virus. Not that it explains the incubation period but the behavioral changes in the infected make slightly more sense.
By the way, have you seen the show "The Knick"? It has a lot of really accurate and thoroughly researched early 20th century medical procedures and breakthroughs in it on top of being a really good, albeit medically gory, show.
Very interesting, thanks!
Realistically speaking from that, it'd likely have had to be engineered. Probably some experiment to try hack the body from an infection as quickly as possibly, without relying on the spread of the infection but relying more on the reaction from the body, or hijacking some primal survival mechanism.
To what extent we could do that is another question. As Dr Hope mentioned, we do know the body can react incredibly quickly to things, not only infections.
I don't know if there are any pathways that could be hijacked quickly enough to turn someone extremely violent and primal like that. Not within mere seconds at least. Not everyone either. Some people can get violent (to the extent of committing criminal acts, including murder) from repetitive sound, imagery, touch, certain words, etc. Varies wildly. Whether there is some relation at a nervous system level between all the various triggers is the big question. Things like ASMR, Frisson, Synesthesia, Misophonia and the like may be possible to hijack chemically.
If so, this virus could likely be made. Although even then, you could still probably target all of those pathways at once, that's entirely possible.
Probably not now, and certainly not cheaply, we're speaking nation state bio warfare levels. It'd be hard to hide it. A typical drug costs upwards of a $1 billion, something like this would be in the multiple billions, if not hitting the double digits, given the immense amount of research that would be needed in trying to target specific pathways.
As great as our understanding is, we're a while away from making good functional artificial viruses. Even our gene therapy right now is pretty shotgun-approach.
According to the comic, it's mutated Ebola, because blood vomit. I hate this franchise. -_-
@@zarayoung3781 specifically it says tat ebola is the main vector but Rage had rabies in its engineering as well
I did learn something from this video, Dr. Hope. I learned that Mother Nature can be scary. From fish eye viruses to zombie mushrooms growing on ants, it's enough to give me nightmares for days on end. Anyway, great video as usual. Cheers!
Thank you for making this difficult time a little better with your videos! They bring happiness to my day ❤️
Zoonotic diseases are the bane of my family's life right now. My wife got Psittacosis and Mycoplasma infections from a sick parrot and we had to go through three doctors just to get to one who believed this infection was possible! Despite her symptoms and test results we can't find a doctor to treat the mycoplasma.
28 Days Later actually had 3 alternate endings: the "first" alternate ending which is essentially the same as the theatrical only Jim died from his GSW; the "second" which is Selena and Hannah arming up and heading back out into London after Jim dies; and a third that never got past storyboards which replaces the soldiers and castle with a shut-in scientist who delivers on the "cure to infection" broadcast, and ends with Jim sacrificing all his blood in a transfusion to cure Frank.
One of my favourite films!
It's a great film
@@DrHopeSickNotes I'm pretty horrified to find out it's old enough to drink :'/
In the first Resident Evil it took Rain basically the entire movie to turn. Despite being bit multiple times. She may have had some sort of immunity, but because she got bit so many times, she eventually turned.
Actually Danny Boyle (the director) did it because at that time uncovered members from PETA showed all theses videos on tv, doctors doing unnecessary and worthless experiments on animals. Also the ALF was in the peak in UK around the 90’s, so he wanted to show that part to make it real and scary, and the movie was absolutely successful!
I just realized, if Jim was in a coma, shouldn't he have been mired in waste? It's not like those functions are paused. Would all the sitting body fluids have caused tissue damage and infection at least around his groin?
He was probably catheterized.
@@NoJusticeNoPeace Well that covers urinary waste, but not infections nor fecal matter.
@@maybenaught He was being fed glucose intravenously, so he probably had no solid food to produce fecal waste. He's pretty skinny. We have no idea how long he's been lying there with nothing but a drip. At least days. And sure as hell in the final days of zombie apocalypse, no one was taking the time to run nutritional supplement into a comatose man's belly.
@@NoJusticeNoPeace True. No solids in, no solids out. Didn't put those together before.
You know, the cause of the zombie plague in this movie because some animal activist choose to release infected animals without knowing the effects, kinda ironic to think about....
Do you mean it is ironic because if people would listen to these activists in reallife we would have far less zoonotic diseases because we wouldn't be in close proximity to the animals that give us these viruses. Also they wouldn't be held in close proximity to another in large numbers.
@Hannah Dyson hmmm ... I'm pretty sure the purpose of the research was top secret ... the activists probably thought they were getting cosmetics tested on them - or perhaps medical research for cancer etc.
I think it's fairly realistic that they had no idea about the virus.
But - surely, releasing hundreds of dangerous animals onto the British public is not a good idea. (and chimps are very dangerous ... they can re-arrange your face in seconds ... especially if they've been brutalised in a lab for months)
This was a really common trope in 90s movies. I haven’t seen it in a long time (maybe not since ‘28 Days Later’, actually.), but this idea that animal rights activists would break in to a lab and just release all the animals in to a city was all over the place.
@@Annie_Annie__ it was a common trope in the 90s because it was a common occurrence in the 50s and 60s when the research into the testing couldn't be done
@Hannah Dyson they are now but the crazy "just let them out" trope is spot on for older animal rights activities
One of my favourite movies, been watching it for years but can't believe I never thought of that ending theory (genius! Makes so much sense) in my defence though by the time the movie ends I'm always going through some anxiety due to the film's musical score, that 'in a heartbeat' arrangement does something physically to me 🙈 Thanks for covering it & really informative!
I think it’s more likely he had an Epidural hematoma which is more associated with traumatic head injuries .
Subdural hematomas are mostly associated with elderlies
THIS!
Yeah, my mom had two subdural hematomas (though the first one when she was like max 50 years old so not really elderly, the second one in her mid sixties so arguably elderly) and neither time were they acutely life threatening nor coma inducing. That said, the first one slowly compressed her brain to half its size and the doctor was like “how are you alive!?” So yeah if you have a headache for 6 months, don’t wait to go to the doctor for 6 months lol. And don’t drive yourself to the hospital in such a situation!
Regarding protective gear, Selena and Mark, the pair that rescues Jim at the petrol station wear masks, eye protection and thick leather jackets. Masks and eye protection to avoid blood getting into their mouths and eyes and the leather jackets to avoid bites, Selena mentions the jacket thing in the 28 Days Later comic series.
Also, the virus was created as a mean to contral agression in human beings, the inhibitor was successfully created and scientists combined it with the Ebola virus for rapid spread, however, it backfired and had the total opposite effect.
The hospital scenes were filmed on site at St Thomas’ in London.
Could I suggest reacting to "Emergency!"? It's pretty outdated as a show from the early 70s, but it tried pretty hard to be accurate and I think it'd be interesting to see how things have changed.
Please do The Thing from 1982. That alien acts more like a virus replicating an entire host and regenerating teeth, old scars, etc. because in one scene they check for fillings in their teeth to see if they are a copy. 38 year old Spoilers? The last scene has McCready give Child's a drink of alcohol, if you pay attention in the early movie, McCready turned them all into Molotovs. So when he gives Child's a drink it's actually gasoline. The alien wouldn't know the difference and didn't react and McCready laughs because the alien didn't react and thought drinking gasoline was normal. It's one if the best endings and movies ever made about a virus/parasite. Check out "The Thing gasoline theory" and there was also something about Child's breath not showing up in the cold because the alien doesn't breath out carbon dioxide? Something like that. We need a Doctor's opinion! Stat! 😃
Thank you for your comment. It led me to discover a reddit thread that linked me to a new author- who, among other things, wrote a short story where he tells the story of The Thing from the thing's perspective.
Great content as usual. Could you do a review on the HBO miniseries Chernobyl? There's heaps of juicy radiation based injuries and medicine.
Jim actually did die from his wounds in the original movie, but test audiences were so depressed after all the horrible stuff in the film that they added that scene, much to the dismay of critics who liked the darker ending.
In the comics, Jim still gets the short end of the stick because he gets arrested for killing the soldiers so win some, lose later?
The post-credit scene shows them trying to treat Jim, but failing. So I guess that was the original.
It is just because we all grew fond of Jim during the movie, and he was the very definition of a human hero at the end. To have him killed with that bullet was too grim and too unjust to endure.
There's comics?
@@blossomof77 the comics are the original source you should look into them if you liked the movies
@@nonnoyobisnis8705 except this existed first so of anything TWD copied this
My favourite bit on the film is when he is walking around deserted London. We never thought that could be possible but after having to travel during the beginning of all this, this was what it was like! I have photos from one of the busiest airports in the world and we were the only flight flying that day (20 people on board too) completely empty, so creepy!
The hospitol scene is a deleted scene not included in the original movie release. The original ending was suppose to only have Selena & Hannah flagging down the plane & Jim dying at the hospital. But test audiences didn't like that Jim was killed off. So all three characters were kept alive at the end of the movie & deleted the hospital scene. But once it came out on DVD the deleted hospital scene was included
There is a different and probably more realistic cut for the ending where sadly Jim does indeed die.
The virus changing behaviour thing also reminded me of a parasite which infects certain types of snails to make sure they get eaten by birds to propagate the parasite larvae in excretia.
What's really interesting about that is that there was talk about this parasite also also potentially infecting humans which can make them take bigger risks, say when driving!
Super interesting stuff!
Great video, really enjoyed it!
Fantastic movie, ive always enjoyed the series but the original is a classic
I know about 28 days later and 28 weeks later, but I was not aware it was a series? I always thought it was just the 2 movies. Are there more in this “series” that I’m unaware of?
@@JMilMovies I assume they meant the series of (two) films.
I hope you don’t mean TWD because that doesn’t anywhere close to this masterpiece.
There were 4 planned movies and only 2 released however its still known as the 28 days series
I know it’s just for the sake of easy explaining but 28 Days Later isn’t a zombie movie, though it may be categorised as such since a lot of people say it is. The infected are still alive and didn’t die when they became infected, while a person must die first before becoming a zombie. And while a zombie needs their head destroyed in order for it to ‘die’, the infected can die by blood loss, gunshot wounds, blunt trauma, starvation etc. With the RAGE virus, and I’m basing this on when someone is angry/enraged, you’re filled with adrenaline which inhibits how much pain you feel and helps to push your body past it’s normal limits. With the infected, it’s like this but all the time. When the average person is shot once or twice, they usually go into a state of shock - the infected don’t. The adrenaline in their body keeps pushing them so you’ll see (especially in the second movie) it takes multiple shots to down them.
You’ll also notice how fast they run and how they can run for a long time, that’s probably the adrenaline too. It’s also suggested in the church scene in the first movie that the infected sleep, hence why you don’t see them walking around 24/7 in the streets like zombies do. Sorry that I sort of went on a whole minor spiel about this, I just really love these movies haha.
Hi Dr.Hope, I just watched your vlog.
I will learn your vlog's medical vocabularies in Japanese. Thank you always for your educational talk. I am looking forward to watching your next one. I will look for the film related the medical contents.😄
A thing that struck me when I watched the movie many years ago was that the infected frequently seemed to be projectile vomiting large volumes of blood. I'm no doctor, and maybe the virus gives the infected some superhuman strength, but my gut feeling is that anyone who constantly vomits lots of blood will not live very long.
dr hope, your video quality really really improves in this past months
and thank you for putting life in danger everyday for the heallth of many :D

@@thequalitycomedian7842 Black is a spin-off from another mangaka, not a sequel
I always hate the fast incubation period in most zombie movies. I think if people got infected that fast governments would beable to quarantine areas very quickly. Where as with a long incubation period people would spread the around the world before anyone knew there was a virus.
I think that's the reason there's usually a time skip to all hell breaking loose, because if they showed the progression from the beginning it probably could be contained.
Yes, this movie finally! Good to see you are OK too, Doc
Talking about the rapid action of drugs and chemicals within the body. I have diabetes and it has always amazed me how quickly oral glucose can raise blood glucose levels after even a severe hypoglycemic episode.
PS... Great videos BTW. I've watched them from the start of hour channel. Keep them coming.
PPS... I saw you had a mention in the Times magazine a couple of weeks ago.
I couldn’t walk after being bed ridden for about 2 weeks. It was kind of like that scene in Kill Bill when B couldn’t walk after waking up from a coma. I had to practice walking with crutches and my blood pressure would drop when standing. As soon as I stand I get a head rush and almost fall over.
Just a reminder: we still didn't get the CAW last ep reaction🙄🙄
Btw love your content
The Rage Virus looks like a combination of a drug called Cloud 9 with The Ebola Virus.
The vending machines in our local NHS hospital actually has some pretty healthy options. Fruit bags, sandwiches, sugar-free juice, things like that.
But I think that's a local initiative, and not nation-wide. At least it sounds like it, by your reaction. I've just never been to any other hospital in England, where I've been past the vending machines.
28 Days Later is really the only Zombie film I like. Zombies are really overplayed in horror movies and TV, but when I watched this there was just something about it that made it seem different and more interesting.
Woah I have never noticed the little side notes next to the times frames that tell you which part of the vid you are at 😯😯😯
When you were talking about the altered behaviors of the infected in the movie-- which, FYI, they aren't zombies per sè, just infected-- based on real life infections that hijack systems in your body, one thing I think of is the rabies virus. The rabies virus makes animals ravenous and their behavior changes drastically, and when a human gets bit by an animal infected by the rabies virus, if the human doesn't get vaccinated, they can also start having bizzare behaviors and then they will die because it is a fatal disease. So I think rabies is the closet thing to a zombie virus based on how it hijacks the host and then causes them to want to bite and spread the virus.
Hahaha! 😂 I was just thinking that you should review this. Great video!
There's actually another ending that never got filmed where Frank in cured via a blood swope with Jim. Love the director's response to that, "what are you gonna do? Scrub his veins out with bleach?"
I'm a bit sick of movies where an infection manifests itself impossibly quickly like this. It's way too common.
The irony is that the longer the incubation period, the more the disease can spread. Conversely, the shorter the incubation period, the less it can spread. So these movies get it completely backwards.
Ya, too fast and it burns itself out
Well, in the case of a virus that does not incapacitate its host, it makes sense to have symptoms show up quickly if it can get cells to produce the right testosterone and adrenaline to get its host to fight (or just hijack the cells to create 1 for 1 copies of the virus and PCP at once (which would require some very advanced genetic engineering knowledge to know how to get the edits to always work the same way)). Though that still leaves the problem of not generally having enough of the strain within the saliva being spread.
It ups the horror element though
Well for a realistic zombie virus, the host must be alive and not dead. But after suffering from an animal or fellow humans attacking it, I find survival of the host unlikely for a long period of time without medical intervention. In that case the only way for continued spread is a shorter incubation period where the infected host can attack others and spread it.
I don't understand how it is possible that there is no pandemic in the end with this virus
Love ur content doc, keep it up!
Yes! You have very educational content and the way you have kept us informed during the COVID pandemic has been great but I missed this kind of light material which is also educational but also fun.
You should see the second one, it deals with how natural immunity would work with a virus.
I think the rage virus is kind of like rabies in the way that it spreads (fun fact in Spanish the virus is called "Rabia" o "Furia" while rabies is also called "Rabia") I don't remember if they say it but a high fever can also make a patient go aggressive and fever is a symptom of rabies although it takes several days or maybe weeks to develop if I'm not wrong.
Great content and it is very good to see you are doing fine, take care please.
Love your work and videos Doc, you should do contagion if you haven't yet
Thank you! I did Outbreak last week; loved it. You can see it here: ua-cam.com/video/fe0V6wUBLhw/v-deo.html

I love how he breaks down our favorite movies/shows and makes them more relatable ❤️
Very interesting video Dr. Hope, yet again! You’ve saved me from watching the whole film, far too scary!
It was mentioned 3 of 4 new infections are zoonotic. It is mostly due to how pervasive humans have become. Making housing by reducing habitats which in turn results in closer proximity giving more contact and hence chance of transmission.
3:41 i think your actully right about the chemicals of the rage
I really like your theory for the ending !
Great video.
Thanks for doing a video on this one! You're brilliant!
I really want a zombie movie made by a team who knows what they do.
Having a long incubation time would make it so much more scary in my eyes.
I believe the Walking Dead has a pretty long incubation time comparatively. Granted, I haven't seen it in so long I don't remember if it's from a virus.
Black tide rising, by john ringo. First incubation long enough to allow global spread...a flu like illness. Followed by a dormant period, then whammy! Psycho murderous cannible phreaks...who rip off their clothes..
Not a movie. But the game Days Gone did something like that... Flu-like at the beginning, then rabies-like plus mutation of the infected people
The film Cargo with Martin Freeman (I think it’s on Netflix) has a longer incubation period than a lot of zombie-type movies. Once people get infected in the film they set this timer watch that counts down the days/hours they have left. Although, if I remember rightly, the watch counts down to the point where the disease ‘takes over’ the person rather than counting down to when symptoms start so it’s not exactly what you guys were talking about 🤷♀️
The main character gets infected and is racing against time and symptoms trying to keep going long enough to find someone who can take care of his infant daughter before he loses himself to the virus
It’s a pretty decent film - worth a watch Id say. Martin Freeman is good as usual 👍
Notice also that after Jim is shot, they seem to crash the car, it the says "28 days later..." Then in hospital.
This is actually one of my favorite movies (I love the Main music theme too) and the sequel... too bad we never got 28 years later

Finally, a doctor that mentions food as a part of health. So many doctors say “diet doesn’t really matter” “the standard American diet is fine” when we know that that is BS. Most standard western diets contain little real nutrition, most people are deficient in vitamins like D, C and B, and are also mildly dehydrated and not sleeping enough.
Awh man, great job on this. Have you ever seen “Night of the Comet”, would love to see your thoughts on the doctors in that zombie-ish movie 💕
you should check the movie "Contagion", I think it has way too many similarities with this pandemic and I love the movie. : D
The last time I was in a hospital the café had all sugar free, artificially sweetened drinks, which are disgusting and give me bellyache (for starters, it gets worse later) and no water. Not even cold tap water. No decaf hot drinks either (can't have caffeine either!). Suppose I could have had hot water. The whole no sugar thing needs a rethink if sweetener is going to be the only real alternative on offer. Even if it didn't make me ill, it's bloody horrible tasting stuff. (Edited because I wrote a load of nonsense at first.)

@@DrHopeSickNotes So you are from Britain and a doctor.
I have a question if a crazy guy out there in the world took rabies, ebola and Covid-19 and mixed them together. Would the viruses cells just kill each other or combined and become more deadly disease that would be more deadly than Covid-19.
Also, I just had a thought what are the chances of some ass hole pranking people in Britain during this Covid-19 pandemic pretending to be infected with the rage virus in Britain to scare people.

@@ThePoshboy1 true, true, but it would be interesting to see
fun fact, in the original screen play for the movie jim died and took with him the last hope for humanity as instead of moving to the countryside to signal for help, the remaining survivor threw sense to the wind to wage a war on the zombies
The funny thing is that patient survived in hospital on a single IV for 28 days. Is this possible?
The story picks up 28 days after the release of the virus, but it wouldn't have been 28 days since he had doctors and nurses attending to him. Depending on how quickly society went down the tubes, it was probably a lot shorter time frame.
@@johngingras Blood transfusion could be the clue. But zombie infestation starts from hospitals. Those are places where infected will be taken.
@@2EOGIY I think this particular virus is different from a "normal" zombie apocalypse infection because the incubation period is so short, and because the symptoms are so violent. I think with this virus infected people would be more likely to be taken to the police station than the hospital.
I once had a saline bag that emptied and was left too long and my blood started to travel into the bag. I don't know how far it would have got (probably depends on some physics I don't have the capacity to work out when blood pressure is factored in) but when I see empty bags in things like this and TWD, I always wonder why there's no blood hanging around in there.

I have often said the same thing about the junk food vending machines and donut shops in hospitals. There is no reason they can’t offer healthier alternatives
The original ending didn't have him appear at the end, kinda leaving it unknown. I believe they used the one with him there after studio execs or test audiences said they wanted something happier.
If you don't mind reading sub titles then The Rain is a good virus related series on Netflix which I would be interested to hear the true science behind
Original ending was without jim. He actually died in the end in the original cut. But during test screenings people felt it was a bit too dark.
The guy at the start might not have been using the name of the virus, I always reckoned that given the circumstances he might have just been describing what happens to the infected in an effort to try and stop the activists from releasing the animals.
Honestly, I can relate about you talking about PPE. I'm not a doctor or in the medical field at all but whenever I'm watching movies, especially movies like these I'm wondering about where everyone's PPE is or why it's not being properly worn.
Adaptability and mutation are key rules in nature. Human beings unfortunately use them just for their own advantages :we easily forget being also rational and emotional creatures. Instincts prevail like in animals and viruses. That said, 100 % agree vending machines are generally boxes of trash in hospitals and schools as well. Stay safe 🇮🇹🍀🇬🇧

I have a theory about the speed. You mentioned getting cells to react and cause the symptoms.
I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. It crosses into the brain and can cause severe cognitive effects including aggression/hostility/irritability.
If this is a virus that immediately produces this specific mast cell activation feature-- TURNED UP TO ELEVEN-- All sorts of accessory reactions could happen. Including vasodilation or incredibly leaky vessels that turn the eyes red. Including extreme brain fog and aggression at once. We're talking an extremely tailored sort of... closest analog I can describe is a cytokine storm.
Something I realized is that even if those chimps weren't infected that first one probably would've attacked and killed that first girl anyways.
I completely forgot Peter Baynham was the scientist in 28 days later!
Now to binge The Day Today clips for an hour.
