The story

The documentary follows three scientists—Linfa Wang in Singapore, Shi Zhengli in Wuhan, and Peter Daszak in New York—who were central to coronavirus research long before the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2003, they successfully traced the origins of the SARS outbreak to a bat cave in China and warned that a similar, more dangerous virus could emerge in the future. When COVID-19 appears, their expertise is initially sought after, but they soon become targets of intense political scrutiny and public blame.
