Contagion is a 2002 film categorized within the drama and science fiction genres. The plot follows a scenario in which terrorists strike at the United States President using a deadly Level Four Ebola virus. As the situation escalates, the army is faced with the decision of destroying a hospital located in a small town that houses both the President and victims of the virus to prevent a worldwide epidemic. Meanwhile, doctors work to find a cure for the infection. The film, which has a runtime of one hour and thirty-five minutes, was released in the United States on October 7, 2003. This production is distinct from the 2011 medical thriller of the same name directed by Steven Soderbergh, which focuses on an airborne pandemic and a global race to find a cure. The 2002 version centers on the specific threat posed by the terrorist attack and the subsequent military and medical response to contain the biological hazard.
