Pandemie

A good show to watch to make people aware of a situation that can turn into a reality, this show, highlights and shows all of our past mistakes and also make sure to show how to tackle these issues and how to stay cool calm and collected under bad circumstances. This is not acting and this is not made up, this show, are showing us the real and cold world, how people are living. how people are working, dying and much much more. They really highlight the real heroes in our world, and show us how much people are actually working for our greater good. A really good choice to release this show right now because of what situation the world is in right now, this show is eye opening and made me and will probably make others realize aswell how easy it is for us to get ourselfs into such a situation. Make sure to stay quarantined guys!!

Too much focus on irrelevant things and personal lives. A bit of context is ok but so many boring details without purpose have ruined this series. Better editing would have done wonders to keep it interesting and engaging.

This is a documentary about how different organizations are trying to prevent an Influenza outbreak. I agree that there is a lot about politics but that's because this documentary is trying to illustrate just how much power that politics and/or can have on the global medical platform.

There are no frills or fanciful embellishments. This is not a documentary about the survivors' guide to a virus pandemic; it is a documentary that deals with the real work that these incredible people are doing to keep the world healthy. It shows the dedication and sacrifices that doctors, nurses, politicians, scientists, emergency aid workers and volunteers are making to save even just one person. I think it's a pretty awesome documentary; I have learnt a lot through it and that's the main reason for documentaries. 8/10

This has little to do with science or the flu. It's just a bunch of mini stories about people who work in the industry. This is cringe level stuff: the 45 year old guy who wears leather jackets and rides a skateboard. The young female scientist with a nose ring who seemingly knows nothing. The Indian woman who says she is working on 30 projects at once but pretends to feed her children each meal and read them bedtime stories after playing building games with them. If these are the people on the front lines, we're in deep trouble.

First a quick review. This documentary takes on a great topic, then beats the hell out of it. The threat of a pandemic is real and seeing what is being done to help prevent it is interesting and educating. The people who work hard to help prevent widespread disease outbreaks are often motivated altruistically and use science as a main tool. You get to see a lot of this in the show, Which is good, but it tends to be redundant . You also get to see a lot of things you may not be expecting such as personal lives, descriptions of religious beliefs, extracurricular activities, etc. This may not be such a bad thing, but it is done to an extent that leaves the movie jumping between important scientific endeavor within the context of public health, and somewhat disjointed and rather uninteresting topics outside the realm of what the movie claims to be. A "6" is an honest ranking that doesn't pump it up, and doesn't push it too undeservedly low. Next, comments on the widely varying reviews. Because this movie/series Decides to touch on topics and ideas that are outside the realm of public health and safety, many reviewers seem to feel a need to criticize it for going against, or supporting certain political, religious, or other believes. Giving this show a 1/10 or a 10/10 rating is absolutely silly. It seems that anti-vaxers can't stand it because it goes directly against their "beliefs" regardless of reality and science. People giving it a 10 seem to be doing so simply because they don't like that some people gave it a low ranking. If you like good documentaries you'll probably feel it's ok, not great. if you are in public health or science in general, you may like it even more. If you're politically sensitive or anti-vaxer, you probably won't like it.
