The ‘mad’demic in a pandemic is a joco-serious fictional book that narrates author’s thoughts and fictional conversations. The book begins from the early days of the pandemic and ends the when the “third wave” hit India. The book addresses the fiascos that were carried out in the name of pandemic management and greater good of public health.

The entire public health responses during the pandemic like lockdown, test, trace and quarantine, stay home and stay safe, use of expensive and trial drugs, discounting the benefits of early low cost treatment, and excessive fear mongering in the media makes this pandemic as the humankind’s greatest saga of collective cognitive dissonance. This book is about an hour read, especially dedicated to the people who are critical thinkers and do not just follow what is being told to them on prime time television.
