The west will not like this at all. Don’t be surprised if a war starts in Tanzania or the president is killed soon.

I don't know if the show was a direct take from the novel or not, but it was based on a book by Stephen King that was from 1979 (almost as old as I am). I'm curious to check out the book and see if it lines up the same.

I think you're referring to The Stand? Anyway, I just thought it was really "coincidental" that CHLOROQUINE was used as a great treatment in the movie, when we see that is what's been touted the last couple of months in regards to the coronavirus.

No, I was referring to the novel The Dead Zone.

Ironically, while searching for information on the novel, I stumbled across an article saying that King apologized for his "prediction", and explained where the idea came from.

But when it comes to the world of social distancing and self-isolating that we're finding ourselves in over COVID-19, there's just one novel he continues to get questions about: "My response is, 'I'm sorry for that. But when I wrote it back in the Seventies, I just had this idea based on a chemical spill in Utah. And I went to a doctor that I knew, and I said, 'Could you give me a scenario for a pandemic that wipes out 98% of the Earth's population?' And his eyes lit up. I mean, they love that sort of apocalyptic 'what if' scenario."
