Exclusive: Rooney Mara and Joaquin Phoenix have teamed up with Cowspiracy filmmaker Keegan Kuhn and BAFTA Award-winning director Alex Lockwood, to executive produce, The End of Medicine, a new feature-length documentary about zoonotic diseases, which threaten the health and lives of the entire human population.
The doc began production in October 2019, months before Covid-19 was making headlines around the world and touches on the disease, which is when germs and viruses that spread between human and non-human animals. It includes interviews with some of the world’s leading scientists whose research and testimonies conclude that the public health emergency we are presently facing was inevitable and is far from over.
The prevalence of new viruses, including Covid-19, were preceded by deadly ‘superbug’ outbreaks such as swine and avian flu, Mrsa infections, multi-drug resistant organisms, and a host of food-borne illnesses, which can all be traced back to one industry: animal agriculture.
