    From another article about the study which reads like it was translated
    to English:

    'Colleagues scrivner interviewed 310 people in the age from 18 to 72
    years of what movies they prefer, whether looking for information about epidemics and how they were ready to Covid-19, if faced with anxiety, depression, irritability or insomnia during epidemics. As it turned out,
    the crisis, they experienced a fairly quiet. In this pathological
    curiosity correlated with great interest to watching scary/supernatural, mystery/Thriller and a movie about epidemics and viruses. While this
    type of curiosity was not associated with viewing romantic Comedy or
    adventure films.'

    Seems that we are less depressed and sleep better than our non-horror
    loving brethren.

    CONTAGION is a horror film?

    I was reading Ezekiel Boone (real name) as the first lot of quarantine kicked in and couldn't believe how similar the government's preparation for a respiratory
    virus is to that for a wave of killer spiders.

    We were ready for this (apart from toilet paper).

    It's when I'm around Disney-fans and K-Pop media-addicts that I'm a nervous-wreck. I can handle people staying at home.

    I guess that'x coming in October, but I'm not worried. I've yet to come
    across a spider that is WORTH A WANK against a bottle of Flash Bleach
    Spray.
