| Abstract (English): |
Cinema is a training resource that has been used frequently to facilitate learning in the health sciences. The biomedical content of the film Virus is described and analyzed, aimed at presenting the massive contagion by influenza A H5N1 viruses. The virus by presenting mutations that favor contagion between animals and humans, has the potential to become a pandemic. During the film, shortcomings of the South Korean government are revealed since the actions to face this imminent pandemic do not take into account medical and scientific criteria, concurring in actions against humanity. A production with a plot of fiction, terror, and catastrophe where fear and paranoia are as contagious as the disease itself. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |

El virus, al presentar mutaciones que favorecen el contagio entre animales y seres humanos, tiene el potencial para convertirse en pandemia. En el transcurso de la película se revelan falencias del gobierno de Corea del Sur ya que las acciones para enfrentar esta inminente pandemia no toman en cuenta los criterios médicos y científico, concurriendo en acciones de lesa humanidad. Una producción con una trama de ficción, terror y catástrofe donde el miedo y la paranoia contagian tanto como la propia enfermedad. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
