Why subscribe?
If you share my fascination with the history of pandemics and the science of infectious disease this is the Substack for you. Every month I will upload an essay or commentary on an aspect of Covid-19 and the parallels with other epidemics and pandemics. From Spanish flu, to plague, cholera and malaria, my aim is to share my knowledge of medical history and foster a dialogue between the medical humanities and the life sciences. From time to time I also publish the texts of public lectures, original journalistic investigations, and stories from my back catalogue.
