I had the pleasure of meeting author Dr. Kari Nixon on Instagram, and she asked if I'd be interested in her book. I immediately bought her book, because I loved the premise (so timely). Admittedly, I was expecting an "academic read," something dry and filled with SAT prep words.
I am thrilled to report that Quarantine Life from Cholera to COVID-19 is not a dry read at all. In fact, it's filled with stories, quips, and relatable lessons that we can use in our lives now.
Especially here in the U.S., COVID-19 has brought tragedy, division, and scratch-your-head moments. We have been blessed to not have a widespread pandemic in years, which also meant we had no idea how to live through a pandemic. Earlier generations did. And it's through these earlier generations that we can glean lessons for getting through COVID-19.
Quarantine Life from Cholera to COVID-19 is the type of book that I wish more people would read. Not just because I think the author is awesome, but because the information in this book would help many different professions: public health, medicine, politics, education, and more. And if you're not in one of these professions too, you should read Quarantine Life from Cholera to COVID-19 because the lessons Dr. Nixon spells out are for all of us.
Together, we will get on the other side of COVID-19 (whatever that looks like). Quarantine Life from Cholera to COVID-19 will help us get there.… (altro)
