The video also reveals the facts about the real contents of the scene.

Apparently, the virus mentioned by Said is a symptom of SARS.

When the episode aired, SARS was indeed a disease that was troubling the world.

"If you post, it must be complete," wrote the @FioSorale account.

Quoted liputan6.com from the WHO site, SARS was first detected in Guangdong, China in 2002.

The cause is also caused by the Corona virus, but from a different strain than the one that is now epidemic, namely SARS-CoV.

Like COVID-19, symptoms of this disease are indeed similar to influenza, including fever, chills, and headaches.

Bajaj Bajuri is not the first work of fiction that is considered to predict the presence of the corona outbreak of Covid-19.

Previously, the Contagion movie, The Simpsons animation to the Korean drama series Terius Behind Me were also considered to predict the emergence of the Corona COVID-19 virus.
