Elixir sulfanilamide -- Thalidomide -- The swine flu of 1976 -- HIV -- Recognizing a crisis -- Crisis management -- Communications and politics -- Preventing the next crisis -- Responsibility and blame -- Opportunity in crisis -- Supplementary materials : a closer look at crises.
Summary: "Before the COVID-19 pandemic, I sometimes struggled to convince my students that crises matter. Crises are not just distractions from the work of public health, I insisted. In the blink of an eye, crises become the work of public health. To aspiring health officials, I might add: "A crisis might determine whether you succeed or fail in your job." To future advocates, I might point out: "A crisis might create your most powerful opportunity for change.""-- Provided by publisher.
