The World Sickness and the New Medicine

Michael Ferres

The first five years of the pandemic re-examined.

This book explores the origins, management, and consequences of COVID-19 through a critical lens—drawing on medical literature, historical context, and emerging data.

From transmission and treatment to vaccines and excess mortality, The World Sickness and the New Medicine challenges prevailing narratives and invites readers to question what was known, what was done, and what it all means.

A provocative and uncompromising account of one of the most significant global events of our time.
