Plot

This is based on the medical fiction novel Outbreak by Robin Cook.

Reception

Todd Everett of Variety wrote, "In reducing the hazard to the level of personal melodrama, both the feature and the telepic trivialize the real-life menace, which is plenty scary on its own." John J. O'Connor of The New York Times called the story inane and harebrained. Chris Willman of the Los Angeles Times wrote that Mastroianni "tries to pump imperiled-woman suspense into the ludicrous scheming, with minimal antidotal effect. Prepare for an outbreak of laughter."
