ReportSynopsis
When virtually all of the residents of Piedmont, New Mexico, are found dead after the return to Earth of a space satellite, the head of the US Air Force's Project Scoop declares an emergency. A group of eminent scientists led by Dr. Jeremy Stone scramble to a secure laboratory and try to first isolate the life form while determining why two people from Piedmont - an old alcoholic and a six-month-old baby - survived. The scientists methodically study the alien life form unaware that it has already mutated and presents a far greater danger in the lab, which is equipped with a nuclear self-destruct device designed to prevent the escape of dangerous biological agents..

I would say no, but I would note that a doctor trying to find a cure for the virus withholds food from a crying baby over a period of time so that he can study him.

Animals are kept in abusive conditions in cages. Also, they suffocated a rhesus on real life to make it appear to die.

During the scene where a rhesus monkey dies when exposed to the germ, the monkey was actually placed in an environment of carbon dioxide in order to make it suffocate to make the death look realistic. After the scene was filmed, the monkey was given oxygen and quickly recovered with no lasting damage. This scene was performed with the permission and supervision of the ASPCA.

Sort of; we see a corpse with its eye gouged out, probably by vultures, but it's easy to miss.

There isn’t actual v* but it shows the main female scientist having a seizure and she foams at the mouth. Only slightly. I didn’t find it gross or triggering at all. Her body language kinda looks like she might v* but she does not!

Yes, a character has a seizure and the lights that caused it are shown. However, the effects are purposely designed in a way to prevent audience seizures. Caution is advised.

A baby cries loudly and incessantly through most of the movie, including several long scenes where it doesn’t let up. Nobody attempts to soothe the baby.

A woman almost gets them all killed because the computer screen triggers a quasi-blackout and she misses an important test result flashing on screen. It is suggested she did not report her illness to avoid discrimination.

the blood of victims dries up. gruesome wounds are shown but though you see the organs, broken flesh, etc, there is no liquid blood. at one point a corpse is cut and powdered blood shoots out which could be quite triggering, but there's no blood at all after the first 45 minutes or so.

Threat of nuclear countdown is shown in case the contamination breeches the lab's safety protocols.
