“Painfully good. The book could have been called, ‘Outrageous.’ The
story Andy Slavitt tells is not just about Trump’s monumental failures
but also about the deeper ones that started long before, with our health
system, our politics, and more.” --Atul Gawande, author of Being Mortal
The definitive, behind-the-scenes look at the U.S. Coronavirus crisis from one of the
most recognizable and influential voices in healthcare
From former Biden Senior Advisor Andy Slavitt, Preventable is
the definitive inside account of the United States' failed response to
the Coronavirus pandemic. Slavitt chronicles what he saw and how much
could have been prevented -- an unflinching investigation of the
cultural, political, and economic drivers that led to unnecessary loss
of life.
With unparalleled access to the key players throughout
the government on both sides of the aisle, the principal public figures,
as well as the people working on the frontline involved in fighting the
virus, Slavitt brings you into the room as fateful decisions are made
and focuses on the people at the center of the political system, health
care system, patients, and caregivers. The story that emerges is one of a
country in which -- despite the heroics of many -- bad leadership,
political and cultural fractures, and an unwillingness to sustain
sacrifice light a fuse that is difficult to extinguish.
Written in the tradition of The Big Short, Preventable continues
Andy Slavitt’s important work of addressing the uncomfortable realities
that brought America to this place. And, he puts forth the solutions
that will prevent us from being here again, ensuring a better, stronger
country for everyone.
