@SAUNDERS @Alphakilopapa @gvs I'm not going to claim viruses do not exist, pathogens certainly do, but my take is we (mankind) knows shit about it and how contagion works.

One thing I'm 100% sure is that contagion occurs in pockets, never exponentially doesn't matter what the illness is. It has happened all through history even the black death worked like this.

So basically no, pandemics don't work like we've been told to, there is no "Contagion, the movie", there never has been.
