Staff Review: On the Origin of the Deadliest Pandemic in 100 Years

December 1, 2021 Words Worth Books

Title/Author: On the Origin of the Deadliest Pandemic in 100 Years - Elaine Dewar

Genre(s): Science, Journalism, 

There are going to be dozens of Covid related exposes in the coming months. Most of them won't compare to this. Canadian investigative journalist Elaine Dewar posits that there are avenues that were glossed over in the story of how all of this came to be and she has combed through all (seriously) of the source material to bring much of  what we know and did not know, to light. This reads like a political thriller in spots and seldom gets bogged down in overwrought reportage or agenda laden research.
