In science fiction novels, in addition to describing various high-tech and intelligent robots that we have not yet realized in our imagination, more descriptions are placed on the confrontation between humans and viruses. Some viruses come from outer space, and some viruses come from human biological experiments. Sometimes there is no suitable response plan for those viruses created during the experiments. Once a leak occurs, it will cause immeasurable consequences.
In this novel created in 1964, it describes a virus that is very similar to that of now. The reproduction speed of this super virus will rise suddenly with the increase of temperature. It accidentally caused leakage during the transportation of international spies, and the virus spreads rapidly. Although there was no obvious reaction in humans at the beginning, it was just because the virus had not adapted to the human host at that time.
pie chart was initially reflected in various mammals, and chickens and ducks in the farm were constantly dying collectively, but at this time people would not associate this situation with the people who died suddenly around them. We only think that the sudden deaths around us are unexpected or caused by some personal illness, so it is too late when the virus actually enters people's vision.
When people realize that the virus has become a large area of influenza , they will name the location where they truly realize the outbreak of the flu, but they do not know that the virus has already spread all over the world with the flow of people. In this novel, only 10,000 people survived in the Antarctic scientific expedition, but it is very difficult to let 10,000 humans bear the inheritance of civilization. Most of these 10,000 people are white, with only 16 women, which not only shows the difficulty of subsequent inheritance, but also indirectly shows that human distribution is uneven.
At the moment of disaster, the injustice between humans and the deviation of survivors is reflected. The more difficult the environment, the fewer female employees are recruited. Then in the face of a crisis like this, the subsequent human inheritance will be affected. The book actually describes that in order to reproduce humans, the Antarctic inspection team adopted the method of drawing lots. A Japanese young man also drew a middle-aged and elderly white woman. The ridiculous situation is covering up the sad reality.
Death seems to be a very scary thing, but in fact it is also a matter of small opinions. Behind death there are often more things that need to be thought about. While the virus brings crisis, it also brings us more basic ideas for thinking about life. In the process of getting along with nature, we must learn how to deal with crises and be more friendly to nature.
