In the national interest : unmasked : the politics of pandemics
In the National Interest: Unmasked: The Politics of Pandemics examines how years of ignoring the scientific context of climate change and the threat of viruses have had an impact, particularly as demonstrated by the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. The book argues that while viruses are created by nature, human governance and political decisions are what cause pandemics. Understanding them is essential to effectively prevent the spread of viruses. However, humans are responsible for taking preventive measures. The work critiques the political failures that have mitigated public health crises and emphasizes that proactive policies and scientific knowledge must be a priority in a coordinated response to mitigate future pandemics.
