Think about films like Contagion or Quarantine.

Are we still in the first act with the main protagonist still trying to warn people about the virus's long term affects and he's being brushed off by the government and scientists?

Or are we in the second act of the film where the main protagonist is trying to get to his family and get them out of the cities before its too late?

I would argue the opposite is happening....seems more like an overreaction.

End of the opening credits or maybe the first scene.

Posting this here for a timestamp for when Hollywood copies my idea, I can collect my check:

Opening credit montage will include video clips depicting with news anchor narration of: people collapsing on the streets of Wuhan, images of the cruise ships sailing in circles with helicopters surrounding them, Trump touring the CDC saying the tests are "beautiful," the stock ticker showing the Dow falling by 2000 points, generic video of scientists working in biohazard suits, discussion about Italy quarantining the country, dancing in the streets of Germanistan, etc.

Directed by Roland Emmerich.

You're welcome, Hollywood.

The best sounding royalty free one we can find.

The cast will be Stephen Dorff, Tom Sizemore, Randy Quaid, Sela Ward, and Gary Busey as President Donald J. Trump and other actors who will work for SAG's bare minimum salaries.

We're in the woman's remake where the media create a Trump virus and only womyn with skills they never knew they had but now magically can do anything try and commit treason.

Sorry this movie was never about a virus, only politics apply now to movies and viruses.

Both will bomb and die much sooner than they expected all due to misogamy.

My entire life looks like the end reel of Contagion now

The server hands me the pen and my card back, I sign the form, I hand the pen back, meanwhile music plays in the background as I've infected the server and the next customer she hands the pen to me, etc. - I'm a murderer, basically
