Uncontrolled Spread : why COVID-19 defeated us and how we can defeat the next pandemic / Scott Gottlieb. - First edition. - xi, 493 pages ; 24 cm
Includes bibliographical references (pages [399]-470) and index.
Former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb identifies the reasons why the U.S. was so underprepared for the pandemic, from failing to enlist the private sector in large-scale manufacturing of testing supplies and medical equipment to resolutely sticking to the narrative that Covid would go away on its own. He warns that if we don't correct these failures, the virus will continue to flourish, more people will get sick and die, and may impact the distribution of a vaccine when one is available.
