Description

Pandemics, Publics, and Narrative – eBook PDF

Research suggests that future influenza pandemics are inevitable as strains of the virus mutate in new ways. With this uncomfortable reality in mind, this ebook, Pandemics, Publics, and Narrative (PDF) examines how the general public experienced the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus outbreak by bringing together stories about individuals’ perception of their illness, as well as reflections on vaccination, social isolation, news, and other infection control measures. The ebook also charts the story-telling of public life, including the ‘be alert, not alarmed’ messages from the beginning of the outbreak through to the narratives that emerged later when the virus turned out to be way less serious than initially thought.

Providing unprecedented insight into the lives of ordinary people faced with the specter of a potentially lethal virus and drawing on currents in the socio-cultural scholarship of illness narrative, narrative, and narrative medicine, Pandemics, Publics, and Narrative develops a novel ‘public health narrative’ approach of interest to health communicators and researchers across the social and health sciences.
