Abstrakt:
The article focuses on a theme of re-emerging infectious diseases (R-EIDs) in film
productions and television series. Our aim was to show interaction between the
epidemics, public reactions and contents of popular culture. The analysis depicts
how popular culture tends to present fears of epidemics, as well as describes two
other threads important to R-EIDs-related narrative: fear of possible collapse of modernity and fear of technological progress.
