This scene was filmed on location and required extensive collaboration between the film crew, the United States Marine Corps and the Federal Aviation Administration. Efforts were made to show the response to a virus outbreak realistically. Anne Cofell, a researcher for 24, consulted with a virologist and the Center for Disease Control. The writers originally planned to incorporate a real virus into the plot but ended up using a fictitious one when researchers doubted that any real virus would be that deadly.

Famous quotes containing the word production:

    In the production of the necessaries of life Nature is ready enough to assist man.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The repossession by women of our bodies will bring far more essential change to human society than the seizing of the means of production by workers.
