Pandemic Response Post-mortem
Whenever Michael Lewis has a new book out, I buy it immediately. His last book turned out to be an unintended prequel to his latest book. The Fifth Risk explained, in unsettling detail, how Donald Trump undermined, and even dismantled, the federal government’s various science-related agencies.

It’s interesting that Lewis refers to the real people he features as being “characters.”
