- "Dali Yang … provides a compelling account of how China's most tragic governance failure in 40 years allowed the worst pandemic in a century to spiral out of control." -- William Hurst, University of Cambridge
- "... uncovers many lessons not only for China but for every country-and we can only hope the world learns them." -- John Barry, Author of The Great Influenza
