Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. xii, [2], 506, [6] pages. Appendix. Index. Inscribed by the author on the page facing the title page. Inscription reads Brenda, Wishing you the very best, Deb Brix. Deborah Leah Birx (born April 4, 1956) is an American physician and diplomat who served as the… White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator under President Donald Trump from 2020 to 2021. From 1980 to 1994, Birx served as an active duty reserve officer in the United States Army. From 1994 to 2008, Birx was active duty regular Army, achieving the rank of Colonel. Birx specializes in HIV/AIDS immunology, vaccine research, and global health. From 2005 to 2014, Birx served as the director of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Division of Global HIV/AIDS (DGHA), part of the agency's Center for Global Health. Starting in 2014, she oversaw the implementation of the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) program to support HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention programs in 65 countries. From 2014-2020, Birx was the United States global AIDS coordinator for presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump and served as the United States special representative for global health diplomacy between 2015 and 2021. Birx was part of the White House Coronavirus Task Force from February 2020 to January 2021. In March 2021, Birx joined ActivePure Technology as Chief Medical and Science Advisor. In March 2021, Birx joined the George W. Bush Institute in Dallas, Texas, as a senior fellow, working on initiatives to reduce health disparities and prepare for future pandemics. Derived from a Kirkus review: The often silenced Trump Covid adviser has her say about the pandemic and its mismanagement. Birx, who regularly appeared before the microphones with Anthony Fauci before being sidelined, was brought into the battle against Covid-19 as a result of her successful, ongoing work battling AIDS in Africa. Interviewed for the new job, she found herself having to explain to a resistant Trump that the virus was not just a bad flu. Her messaging often at odds with Trump's, Mark Meadows', and other White House figures'. She found a sympathetic, behind-the-curtain ally in Jared Kushner as well as unnamed members of the presidential communications staff, who found ways for her to get the word out. Yet her foes in the administrationâ"particularly right-wing doctor Scott Atlas contradicted or stifled her warnings that masks, isolation, and mass vaccinations were needed, and she blames many of the hundreds of thousands of subsequent deaths on those insiders. Much of the narrative offers lessons for fighting the next pandemic, and there her writing can beâ"well, clinical. Still, her arguments are sound: Health agencies must be better coordinated, the CDC should be decentralized and its workers placed in underserved regions, and a single strong message about the risks and dangers of any given illness needs to be sent out. Readers will come to her book, though, not for her epidemiological prescriptions but instead for her anecdotes of battles against recalcitrant political appointees and assorted yes men as epitomized by Meadows. A frontline view of a bungled battle against a lethal pandemic. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Hunter Willis [Author photograph] and Tasos Katopo (illustrator).
