    Chernobyl Inaccuracies

    You pretty much nailed it. As one that enjoys trying to figure out what's true, not true in these type of biopics, nothing came as a big surprise.
    I mean, I think most of those are understood and the whole point the show was trying to do was condense all of the events into a shorter time-frame. It makes for excellent drama. And it was definitely stated at the end of the series that Emily Watson's character was a representation of several dozen scientists. Which would be impossible, if not severely boring, to depict on screen.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Completely agree.

    It's not like Black Klansman that completely adjusts time zones and makes up conflicts in order to fit the intended theme.
