Having not read the book, is The Stand at least a quick apocalypse?
It was not. And then the uncut edition came along.
We are boned (unless you're Nadine).
She got boned so good her hair turned white.
It took about a month to wipe out humanity, but was an absolutely horrible way to die.
The nice thing is they've developed a vaccine for bird flu.
Bad thing is we now have an anti-vax anti-science Health Secretary.
The billionaire class and the administration will absolutely get it (so will Putin, Xi, Orban ect)
Us? Absolutely not.
The stand is an awesome book with a few dated tropes/language. With that in mind, I recommend it. Some of the characters live rent free in my head.
Edit I'm big dumb and misread your comment
