(I had to temporarily disable Javascript to load a non-blank page.)

A major expansion of Wright's piece is also now available in book form:
"The Plague Year: America in the Time of COVID", by Lawrence Wright
(Knopf, 2021), 336 pages, ISBN 9780593320723.

Also, author Wright held a brief (2:23) conversation with Christine
Amanpour about the book:

> BTW, the author's most recent novel, The End of October (Knopf, 2020), is

Obligatory Big South American River link (but support your local
independent book store; yay, Kepler's!):

Since the author of _The Hot Zone_ was willing to blurb it as a
crackerjack medical thriller, I'm willing to believe it's so.
