I loved this show about Chernobyl. I never knew about this terrible accident until after this series. It really shows how terrifying nuclear technology is and how out of control it can get. I think that the series relates a lot to covid as it explores how politics and science can become intertwined. Another thing that stood out to me was the perseverance of our communities in the face of tragedies such as this one and how we are able to band together. I feel like watching the series with my peers brought be closer to them, as we shared a lot of the same thoughts.

Endless possibilities
I like and agree with your comparison to the current COVID-19 situation. The more I think about it, I wonder if the same directors and team would consider making a film about the knowledge of COVID in the early days and how it progresses (and when it ends!).
I like and agree with your statement saying that communities are able to endure even the worst of tragedies. Although people will have their quarrels in times of true danger, people are able to band together and work through tough times.
