Preventable by Devi Sridhar

How a Pandemic Changed the World & How to Stop the Next One

Preventable by Professor Devi Sridhar is a compelling and urgent account of the COVID-19 pandemic, told through the lens of a leading global health expert who advised governments during the crisis. Drawing on front-line experience and global data, Sridhar explores how politics, power, misinformation, and poor planning turned a health emergency into a global disaster and how many of the deaths and disruptions were entirely avoidable.

Both a memoir and a policy critique, this book is essential reading for understanding not only what went wrong, but how the next pandemic can be and must be prevented.

Book Bundle

Perfect for fans of The Premonition, The Plague Year, and Spillover ideal for readers interested in public health, epidemiology, global leadership, and science communication.

Why Preventable is a Must-Read:

  • Insider Expertise: Written by one of the UK’s key pandemic advisors.

  • Global View: Analyzes responses from various nations and leaders.

  • Fact-Based & Accessible: Clear, informed storytelling backed by data.

  • Action-Oriented: Offers practical steps to prevent future crises.

Memorable Quote (from the book)
"It wasn’t a lack of science that cost lives. It was the failure to listen to it."

Translation (Sinhala):
"මිනිසුන් මියගියේ විද්යාව නොතිබුණ නිසා නොවෙයි ඒ සවන් නොදුන්නේ නිසාය."

Translation (Tamil):
"அறிவியல் இல்லாமை தான் காரணம் இல்லை அதை கேட்காததே காரணம்."
