Book Launch—The Big One: How We Must Prepare for Future Deadly Pandemics

Please join the CSIS Bipartisan Alliance for Health Security on Wednesday, September 10, from 4 to 6 pm for the book launch of The Big One: How We Must Prepare for Future Deadly Pandemics. As bad as Covid-19 was, the next pandemic could be worse. While the world learns to live with Covid-19 and continues to recover from its worst effects, how do we prepare for the next pandemic lurking around the corner?  

The event will begin with a panel moderated by CSIS Senior Vice President and Director J. Stephen Morrison, featuring co-authors Michael T. Osterholm, Director, Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP), University of Minnesota, and Mark Olshaker, Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker and New York Times #1 bestselling author. The panel will run from 4 to 5 pm, with a reception to follow from 5 to 6 pm. Copies of the The Big One will be available for purchase during the reception, and the authors will be available to sign copies of the book. 

This event is made possible through the generous support of the Gates Foundation.
