Abstract

As the publisher notes, “Emergency management expert Robert O. Schneider considers the quality of U.S. pandemic planning and preparedness; the quality and effectiveness of national, state, and local response efforts; and the performance of national leaders during this historic public health crisis.” The book culminates in an assessment of how a predictable public health threat became an unprecedented health, economic, and security disaster.
