The other night I was lucky enough to attend a screening of the movie, CONTAGION. This action thriller directed by Steven Soderbergh and starring Matt Damon, Kate Winslet, and Jud Law really brought the fears of many people right to the surface. There really is no way to stop an air-borne or surface virus from spreading, is there?
The theater went silent as the threat of the on screen virus spread internationally. No one was safe from young to old as the CDC was contracted by the government to track down the cause of the spreading virus and massive deaths and find a cure. While we waited, the suspense built and the bond with the characters increased as we feared for their lives.
This movie hit close to home with me since two years ago my son contracted H1N1 on a family vacation. The symptoms hit rapidly and we were all quarantined in a hotel room for 7days. I could really relate to the fear instilled throughout this flick. 
I did notice quite a few people exiting the theater when the movie ended and using the available hand sanitizers that were available. CONTAGION was not only action filled, but really very thought provoking. As for when someone in the theater coughed….It just sent a chill down my spine.
