Description

Book Synopsis
This collection of first-person accounts by doctors, nurses, and others at the front lines in Appalachia explains how rural communities have responded to COVID-19, addresses stereotypical assumptions about and challenges within rural medical care, and describes burnout and other long-term effects of the pandemic on health-care workers.

Trade Review
“The ‘story’ of rural America during the COVID-19 pandemic is best examined by looking at the response of an underresourced and poorly designed system of care, providing care for a population most at risk for the pandemic.”
