As a bonus for All In listeners, Chris is sharing recent episodes of his original podcast, “Why Is This Happening?”, that are focused on dynamics around the Coronavirus. In this episode, he talks with author John M. Barry about what we learned from the last great pandemic. You don’t have to dig deep into the 1918 influenza before finding eerie similarities to today. John M. Barry’s meticulously researched account of the 1918 pandemic in his book “The Great Influenza” was so affecting that it inspired then President George W. Bush to develop a comprehensive pandemic plan after reading it. There’s no one better to discuss the similarities and differences to what played out a century ago and the far-reaching reverberations this moment will have. We hope you enjoy the preview.
