One of the Top 10 most streamed films on Netflix this week, this film feels dated in its premise and special effects, but interesting from a science standpoint. Hoffman plays a Colonel at USAMRIID who tracks down the viral host and develops a vaccine in about 48 hours. If you're stuck at home binge watching and thinking about viruses, it's worth a spin. I haven't a source to confirm it, but I'm pretty sure this is inspired by the 1994 popular book "The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston.
