The U.S. pandemic narratives which embodied many conflicting structures failed to provide guidance for groups and individuals to construct a clear understanding of the pandemic or a consistent measure to combat the disease. This book provides a careful examination of the discordant narratives that embodied the chaos, tensions, and conflicts in the U.S. pandemic responses. The ultimate goal of this volume is to help groups and individuals understand just what went wrong in the U.S. pandemic responses.

Shing-Ling S. Chen is professor of mass communication in the Department of Communication and Media at the University of Northern Iowa. Nicole Allaire is associate teaching professor in the Department of English at Iowa State University.
