The special effects for the radiation poisoning

Wow, just wow at how incredibly horrifying the dying people look in the show. That’s some truly disturbing sh*t. It looks like one of, if not the worst way to die imaginable. And when they firefighter’s wife kept on ignoring the nurses and stayed for prolonged periods of time, while repeatedly touching her husband, while pregnant, I was nearly yelling at my TV “wtf are you doing! It’s bad enough that you’re making yourself sick, but while pregnant!?!? What is wrong with you!” Do you think that your husband would rather have you be there to comfort him during his last days and harm/kill you while having a deformed/sickly baby, or have you stay away (or at the bare minimum follow the 30 minutes and no physical contact/stay behind the plastic barrier rules) and not become sick/die and have higher chances of a healthy child. But back to why I originally made this post, the special effects team did an incredible job showing how badly their bodies had been ravaged by Acute Radiation Syndrome. They looked like horrible zombies, no way I’d ever be able to touch someone like that, even if it was the love of my life I don’t think I’d be able to look at them like that. I understand she wanted to help and comfort her husband as he died, and she’s a strong person in a way for even being able to do that, but her disregard for her child’s health/physical development was super reckless.
