Virus Av Nina Burleigh

Virus, by New York Times bestselling author Nina Burleigh, examines the question of how or whether the Trump administration or individual miscreants and profiteers will ever be held accountable for the pandemic missteps that led to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths. It also reassesses the right wing political and media disinformation campaigns related to the vaccines and masks that have contributed to the death toll. In February 2021, former President Trump''s coronavirus response coordinator, Dr. Deborah Birx, said, ''There were about a hundred thousand deaths that came from that original surge. All of the rest of them, in my mind, could have been mitigated or decreased substantially if we took the lessons we had learned from that moment. That''s what bothers me every day.''
