I imagine ebola for the average lay person in Europe or Northern American
must be like a horrifying and thrilling horror film as depicted by
almost all the media - the initial plot revolves around show casing
thousands of nameless Africans succumbing to a killer disease. Later
the stories are dotted by the actual names and faces of a few heroic
Americans falling sick and being evacuated back to their homeland and
given experimental drugs which suddenly appear on the screen. Apparently
this drug has no viable market and maybe research and tests are a long
ways off. This drug does not reappear again although we continue to
watch ebola ravage thousands more Africans. Local and international
doctors plead for help for more doctors and help but they appear as
irrelevant characters on the sidelines for dramatic effect. Towards the
climax, the plague has managed to jump continents onboard planes and
threatens a zombie apocalyse in the Western world. More screen time is
given to airport screenings in Canada and the UK. The movie is now
entirely shot in North America and how the President will show
incredible leadership and save the say.
