This short book brings together novel cross-interdisciplinary
investigation from both natural and social science, representing a
true hybrid across disciplines examining the ‘politics’ and
‘science’ of COVID-19. Viruses, Vaccines, and Antivirals: Why
Politics Matters considers the dynamics surrounding viruses,
proposed vaccines, and antiviral therapies, contextualizing what
governments have done during the COVID-19 crisis. The four basic
phases of a pandemic are considered with a strong focus on
COVID-19, namely the anticipating and early virus detection,
containment strategies, policies to control and mitigate the spread
of the virus and policies aimed at opening up society. Viruses,
Vaccines, and Antivirals: Why Politics Matters examines policy
developments throughout these phases in key nations worldwide and
puts forward a blueprint for countries developing public policies
to deal with a pandemic.
