Uncontrolled Spread

Brief Summary

COVID-19 took aback a lot of policy-makers and societies. "Uncontrolled Spread," by Scott Gottlieb, a former FDA commissioner, explains why COVID-19 overwhelmed America's defenses. Gottlieb says the weaknesses exposed require a national overhaul to handle future outbreaks, whether from deadlier variants, a flu pandemic, or new threats. The book outlines important policies and investments to help the US and the world be better prepared for the next health crisis.
