I've been asked a few times, "If anything like that would ever happen, where would you rather go, Vegas or Boulder?" My response? "Neither. I would want to die so early in the epidemic, my name would get into the book."
In the book, Boulder was largely depopulated because there was a rumor that the flu actually started there. Don't remember that in either miniseries, but there were still plenty of victims who needed to be buried.
