Synopsis
During the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, a scrappy team of university research scientists built one of the first high-capacity covid test facilities in America. As the virus rages and the death toll rises, their ongoing research uncovers a startling truth about the nature of coronavirus transmission, pitting them against skeptics, conservative politics, and the World Health Organization. Based on a true story.
