The COVID-19 Intelligence Failure by Erik J Dahl
Epidemiologists and national security agencies warned for years about the potential for a deadly pandemic, but global surveillance and warning systems were not enough to avert the COVID-19 disaster. Erik J. Dahl demonstrates that understanding how intelligence warnings work-and how they fail-shows why the years of predictions were not enough.
Overall, Erik Dahl’s book is a most worthy and enjoyable readIt adds to the important academic and policy literature regarding debates on the COVID-19 pandemic and its origins, as well as its profound intelligence failure. * The Cipher Brief *
Dahl has strengthened our understanding of the costly intelligence failures that contributed to so much preventable death and illness from COVID-19 and identifies concrete ways to mitigate future failures when new threats emerge in infectious diseases and elsewhere. * Intelligence & National Security *
The COVID-19 Intelligence Failure presents an empirically rich and compelling contribution to our understanding of how the intelligence community performed in the lead-up to the pandemic and the critical need for reform. * Political Science Quarterly *
