This amazingly prescient six-part docuseries introduces the scientists taking on influenza and details their efforts in stopping the next global outbreak — while also fighting underfunding in research and health care, anti-vaxxers, misinformation, and political red-tape. The series warns that another flu pandemic is inevitable, pointing to China as the place to watch (though it was a total coincidence that the series aired right after a deadly new coronavirus was first detected in the Chinese city of Wuhan).
