Whew, the serum is going to save my wife, now I just need


to find organ donors! I always thought this was funny, one part of the movie says peoples organs fail, and basically melt away due to the virus, and Rene Russo is on like, barely able to stay alive long enough for the serum to be fed into the IV.

Maybe the hemorrhaging of the internal organs happens last. A severe fever or maybe minor a minor loss of some organ function could make one appear and feel like they are on their last leg.

I always thought the same thing. It's explained by the Cuba Gooding character that the virus starts attacking and killing inside your body immediately. Yet Renee, who's starting bleeding out, is saved. The whole infecting her was beyond stupid.

It also made me hate the Kevin Spacey character, because he was reckless in not telling her his suit ripped.
