Added DiffLines:

** Parallels were inevitably made between the events of the series and the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic which enveloped the world just several months after the original broadcast, especially when some governments (especially the U.S. under the Trump Administration) insisted that everything was fine and discouraged the population from sheltering in place, avoiding superspreader events and, later, taking mandated vaccinations.

* ApprovalOfGod: Many survivors of the UsefulNotes/{{Chernobyl}} disaster approved the series's portrayal of the disaster, including [[https://youtu.be/6p9LR3gxBm0?t=155 General Nikolai Tarakanov]], who commanded the liquidators on the roof, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo2X-zRmiEU some of the surviving Russian miners]] from the digging operation beneath Reactor #4. The primary people who didn't like it were ([[LifeImitatesArt naturally]]) the Russian government and their mouthpieces, the notable exception being Minister of Culture Vladimir Medinsky. Of course, Medinsky's father was one of the liquidators.
