From former head of Obamacare 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. 20333 COVID-19 (Enfermedad) Política gubernamental Estados Unidos 20099 COVID-19 Aspectos políticos y sociales Estados Unidos 20385 COVID-19 19148 Pandemias lcc BK JaaM 0 0 lcc 0 0 CS BJB BJB CS 2023-04-10 0 HM 1101 S631p 2021 00000155800 2018-11-17 00:00:00 1 2018-11-17 BK
