SYNOPSIS: Contagion follows the rapid progress of a lethal airborne virus that kills within days.  As the fast-moving epidemic grows, the worldwide medical community races to find a cure and control the panic that spreads faster than the virus itself.  At the same time, ordinary people struggle to survive in a society coming apart.

I was just finish watching this movie and I could say that, what the City of Cagayan de Oro is experiencing right now, can totally relate with this movie. Although this is much worst compare to Leptosprirosis case. I hope to GOD it would not go this far. I believe the cause of the epidemic of this movie was coming from an animal, just like Leptospirosis disease. Nowadays, it is very important to wear a mask if you go out from your house. And it’s very important to wash your hands with a soaps or with a hand sanitizer, often.

The movie was not really that super thrilling but you can find here lessons for all of us who has cars and going out anywhere. Nowadays, a lot of bad things has been happening. People get robbed, killed or even carjacked. My simple advise is that, do not leave your children inside the car alone, even if it will only take you a minute to get something. And, do not park your car in an area where most cars are not parked, a possible carjacked attempt is mostly going to happen. Lastly, do not leave your car doors unlocked. Better safe than sorry.
