Pandemic: How to Prevent an Outbreak (2020)
Too much fluff

I watched this series to learn more about pandemics, but they spend an inordinate amount of time showing health care professionals at home with their kids, illustrating their daily routine. I don't know how this tells the story of a pandemic. Perhaps the thinking was that it humanizes the doctors and shows viewers that doctors are real people with families too. I don't really care and just skipped through the filler material. Although there is some good information in the series, it's spread out among all of this B roll footage. If I were the editor of this series, I'd cut about 60% of it out and just focus on the most relevant information, which is about pandemics, not doctor's feeding their kids breakfast while they get ready for work.
