Firefighters are taught to battle flames. Police learn to respond quickly to 911 calls. So why is there so little training for health officials on how to face public health crises? The Public Health Crisis Survival Guide-now updated with a new afterward in light of the COVID-19 pandemic-is here to help. Whether it's (another) infectious disease outbreak, a scathing news report, or a sudden budget calamity, this book gives public health readers an honest and practical overview of what to do when things go wrong-not just to survive, but to lead and thrive in the most difficult circumstances. Written by a voice of experience, practicality, and good humor, The Public Health Crisis Survival Guide will be a source of enrichment and support for the next generation of public health students and practitioners.
