Penn's Village Presents: Lunch and Books
 Lessons from the Covid War: An Investigation

A compilation of essays and reports

Thursday, October 26, 2023, Noon-1:30 pm

Positano Coast, 212 Walnut St.

This powerful report on what went wrong—and right—with America’s Covid response, from a team of 34 experts, shows how Americans faced the worst peacetime catastrophe of modern times.

 

A remarkable group of practitioners and scholars from many backgrounds came together determined to discover and learn lessons from this latest world war. Lessons from the Covid War is plain-spoken and clear sighted. It cuts through the enormous jumble of information to make some sense of it all and answer:  What just happened to us, and why?  And crucially, how, next time, could we do better? Because there will be a next time.

 

Join Penn’s Village for this Fall's Lunch and Books.  As always, no need to have read the book - come ready to discuss whether you’ve read it or not and enjoy great food and good conversation with other members and friends.
