We discuss both Contagions, one, a medical thriller by Robin Cook, that turns out to have nothing to do with the 2011 Steven Soderburgh movie with the same title that continues to freak people out today. We learn about the careers of both creators and how these two works have stood the test of time, especially the movie seen through today's experienced and knowledgeable Covid-19 lens. We also talk about Soderburgh's other movies, especially Sex, Lies and Videotape, a forerunner in the independent movie era. We touch on this month's Atlantic Monthly article "How the Virus Won."Thoughts? Comments? Potshots?
