Episode: “Where are the tests?”
It was written a year prior to the pandemic, and discusses the epidemic of insecurity in society, including how systems have been stripped for parts, leaving people vulnerable.
And in this book, I tell the story of my science and my own upbringing to set up an understanding of how epidemiology works and how we understand the moments that we live in, and then make this diagnosis of an epidemic of insecurity, working outward from the individual to look at all these systems, and then talk a little bit about what I think we need to be thinking about politically if we wanna solve it.
And the crazy thing is, as an epidemiologist who's publishing a book about an epidemic in the context of a pandemic, it's hard to appreciate sort of what you're predicting in the moment when you're writing. I mean, I wrote this thing a year ago. And then now a lot of it makes a lot more sense, but it's painful.
And unless we are willing to fix the undergirding of society and rebuild a lot of these systems robustly, I worry that we won't have learned the big lesson of this pandemic, that it's not just about a virus. It's also about how we as a society and we as individuals are so much more vulnerable to it because of the context in which we live.
Well, everyone should absolutely go buy Healing Politics. It's an outstanding book.
