About this episode

<div> <p>Rage-inducing viruses that spread through bites; a flesh-eating fungus that controls its host like a puppet; deadly pathogens trapped for millennia in Arctic ice… sometimes nature is more gruesome than fiction.</p><p>From the Walking Dead to the Last of Us, stories of contagion are never far from our screens.
