Many of you have asked me when I am going to write a sequel to PANDEMIA, focused on everything that has happened since - the failure of the vaccines, rising excess deaths, and on a more personal note my free speech battles.
I want to, but as a practical matter I cannot spend six months to a year on a book and still write three or more strong Stacks a week, which is what I feel I owe those of you who are supporting this enterprise as subscribers.
One alternative that might make sense is to draw directly on the Stacks and tell the story of the last couple of years through them - republishing the best ones, with an introduction to put them in context and additional commentary where necessary. I would probably group them in sections, including the mandates, the science around vaccine failure, and Berenson v Twitter. For example, in the Twitter section, I would discuss some of the negotiations that led to the settlement - and the way I tried to use the Stack to make clear to Twitter’s lawyers what mattered most to me (the discovery).
I could probably put this book together within months and keep writing at the same pace; it would be a capsule history of the last couple of years and preserve the Stacks in permanent form. Maybe I could even do an audiobook version, as I did for PANDEMIA.
What do you think? If you are interested, let me know - the more preorders you promise, the more likely Regnery or another publisher will want to do this.
I'll order a couple for my Covidian relatives for next Christmas. I'm sure they will apologize for wishing me dead in January 2022 after they open their gift!!!
I want a few to secretly sneak up on those people in cars windows up, wearing a mask on a beautiful day alone. I would slip them into the window wipers on the front windshield and sneak away as only a vaccine hesitant non follower of the science CAN!. We are spry and elusive
My 5 times ( yes 5) vaxxed brother told my mom in March of this year he wasn't coming up for my birthday party at my mom's house because he still thought I should be in a camp for not being vaxxed, people like me drove the pandemic hrough mutations. He's a 55 year-old college educated scientist. We are doomed as a species.
On the flip side, it is always good to know where people stand.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder and fear will make the brain do strange things, like cognitive dissonance.
The "genius" seems to think that paper masks work perfectly, even though he is Hazwoper-trained and has worked in a fully confined suit in a lab.
It was sad at first, now it is just exasperating to watch someone I grew up in the same room with pull their mask down to yell something across the room at Xmas.
I know this is hard but they do eventually wake up I have a Sister that we’re just now starting to talk after almost 3 years and she is open now to dialogue about how bad the vaccine is. she was in the same mindset as your brother and she doesn’t want to hear how bad it is out of fear and that she did the wrong thing so I’m going at a slow and loving pace. I got her to postpone the next booster that she was supposed to get this week.
I know in my family one of my cousin's daughters is a young scientist in Australia. Completely went along with all the lockdowns, etc. Her father couldn't talk any logic to her and of course didn't want to fall out with her as he is in Scotland and didn't want to end their relationship. So sad but it's how the propaganda works and scientists seem to go along with it even maybe because their job depends on it. I believe my cousin had many intelligent friends fall out with him too over the injections. I too lost one in Scotland and others that just didn't want to look at any info I sent them. Not to coerce them into doing what I was doing but just so they could make up their own minds. No go! They wouldn't even look. The friend that stopped talking to me just stopped! She had sent me a small flyer with words on it that said Polio, smallpox, tuberculosis etc. We didn't get that many when I was little but she sent it with no other explanation, just that I should understand all these came out to save us remember! Well I got a bit tetchy at that. Being written to with no explanation, just a flyer of sorts. I replied with knowledge of things that were found to eventually be wrong with these and never heard from her again. Had known her since we were 2 years old. Huh and all over some stupid medical interventions. You'd think we could have a rational conversation and agree to disagree, but no!
Your brother is doomed to reap the consequences of his choices, but you are not, unless you allow his foolishness to do so. Your Mom is the innocent bystander in his cruelty. As a mother, I would be hurt deeply by a rift between my sons such as this. You might want to remind your brother, quietly, that he is hurting your Mom and take yourself out of the discussion about attendance. And I will admit, proudly and happily, that my sons have not refused my company because of COVID-related decisions. God bless you and all of your family in this obviously difficult time.
Thanks for the comment. He doesn't care. His princess wife demands he not see my mom on Mother's Day, because that is HER day. He hasn't been to my parent's for Mother's or Father's Day for 20 years. It kills them a little more each year, he doesn't care.
Shell be embarrassed, since he is still the Golden Child, first born grandchild on both sides, too, scholarship winner to college. Too bad he's a first class jerk!
The only reason I'm still in Sacramento is because my parents are almost 80 and starting to need help. I can never understand those who leave their parents to fend for themselves at the end.
For laughs, I took a peek today at the podcast listings for Dr David Osterholm, Covidian Extraordinaire. His most recent episode is “Not Out of the Woods Yet”. I’m thankful to be living in the real world and not the twisted one of the Covid enthusiasts.
Reverence for the Lord is the beginning of knowledge (wisdom.) A 1998 poll of the National Academy of Science members showed 92% atheists or agnostics. It is likely worse now. That is why we are where we are. If you kick God out at the beginning (materialistic naturalism) you end up in foolishness.
I don't need to reread but this might be good for non-subscribers. I have Pandemia and the Unreported booklets and made some family members read them. So there might be a market for non subscribers
I've read Mark Crispin Miller's accounts of the deceased and injured, national and international, since he began documenting. Would like to have this area included, both macro and micro. Human interest stories of the healthy dropping dead/injured. I've kept his posts, quite the list. It would be very impactful to see this compiled as part of the bigger story.
I'd love to do the same thing, but I think only my sweet mother-in-law would buy a copy. One category of my pieces would be "The only thing we have to fear is ... fear itself."
Fortunately, our rulers are banning most of the activities and products that terrify all of us. Like gas stoves.
This is a MUST DO a and a MUST HAVE. We cannot forget the timelines, the gaslighting and the lessons of the past few years because we most certainly be faced with these issues again (and sooner than we all think.) We need this as a concrete guidebook.
Focus on the studies that point to the health damages. Know of 3 close friends/family all having health issues and sure enough it is their heart. 2 of 3 up to date and boosted and the other had at least the first 2 course of vaccination. Also, want to hear more on the neurological effects.
I think a visual timeline of all the covid misinformation would be very helpful to "connect the dots". Especially to show the skeptics. Love your work.
Here's what I'd like to have: a summary of all inappropriate government and pharma actions and the evidence-based rebuttal as to why these were illogical/useless/harmful.
Masks, school closures, distancing, jab mandates, etc. I'd pay good money for a summary document that stacks all the evidence against the liberals that took away my liberty.
It's time to spike the football before Fauci and Randy rewrite history.
I agree Dr. Brad! Throughout this shit show, my liberal partner got tired of hearing me rant and rave. He never got the true nor complete story from the NYT, but was exposed daily to my comments regarding covid lies and atrocities. He finally got the gist, but he’s tired of listening to me. He would be very willing to sit and read a summary, packed with facts.
I would think drawing from your substacks to publish the book would provide a succinct and comprehensive record of events. I would find that very valuable, indeed.
I'm not interest in a history except as it calls out the true misinformation by FDA, CDC and WHO and media with names and quotes. You have been so maligned that you have nothing left to lose.
The first time I saw Fauci and Birx fumble and fidget on worldwide television, I screamed in absolute unbelief. The interviewer had asked them to describe the statistical models used to derive their conclusions regarding COVID-19. They answered using nonsensical gibberish. When asked how they obtained the requisite random sample(s) for their analyses, they seemed embarrassed and confused. I lost my job for refusing to support these people in High School classrooms. My family has abandoned me. Many others have abandoned me and think I need to die. If Alex wants to create an historical masterpiece depicting the global chicanery that destroyed Free Speech in the World, he has my full support.
It would be nice to have a printed book so when they purge all “unsafe” content from the internet I will have something to remind me that there once were thinking people in the world.
Alex, such a book would be a critically important history of the last three years. People who were wrongfully fired, injured, etc. over the past three years would be grateful as the book would document essential evidence and history of mass hysteria.
Yes. A date stamped compilation of your writings as the pandemic progressed and new info became available= an actual time capsule. A historian''s dream. Perhaps you add context, maybe you don't, regardless.....that would be great to reread and look back on 20 years from now.
Make it a primer on all COVID myths debunked since 2020 and how it could have easily been known at the time they were promoted that they were untrue. An easy to read, A to Z guide with color photos and “fun” graphics. Maybe a dog in a Sherlock Holmes outfit narrating. Many of us need a guide for the unschooled. Last ditch attempt to show them the light before they “move on” as we’re now being told.
I like to be able reference past posts and the links you provide. It helps me stay sane by remembering that this crap is happening to us all, and that the emperor is absolutely naked. I like having the references handy to win arguments or simply ridicule the idiots (I live in Michigan, there are many).
It's important to get the story out there and keep it alive. It's important that peope who are waking up to the truth have sources they can go to for the history as it was happening. It's important that people see the lies from those in power, and how they collectively covered up the truth. It's important that we remember what was done to us and not let it go the way of last year's Superbowl loser in our collective memory.
A collection of Substacks is an easier read and will convey the information well. And, it would help me clean out my "covid" file inbox :)
I plan to buy and leave it around where my grandchildren will be able to find it some day. My teacher/ librarian mom told me not to throw away her encyclopedias because what was written couldn’t be changed. Oh how I wish I would have listened to her before she died.
I like this idea for a book. I have friends/family who do not subscribe and seem to tolerate listening to me talk about what you've published on this Stack. Several of those friends/family are not fans of reading on the computer.
Besides, I'd like another book on the bookshelf, for the historical record.
I am looking for an accountability book-- Pharma, CDC, FDA, HHS, White House., FBI, Twitter. What about back to the beginning-- a series of pamphlets-- that could make its way into a book---
Audiobook is a great idea also. I’ve actually saved my favorites in a folder so when some bleep head has something to say I can pull out the article and tell them what’s up.
I actually would love someone to put together an Alex Epstein style website. He made this to help people explain the logical fallacies of a lot of climate change policies.
A repository of easy to digest and also primary data sets like you have used in your posts would be harder and harder to refute on a central site. I bet you could hire someone to organize a copy cat site of his approach about Covid and free speech. I would share it with people if it had a “share truth” central message rather than a “dunk on your relatives” vibe. My hope is for them to see their failure to be appropriately skeptical so they don’t do it again. I don’t have any desire to show I was right.
I have read yours, and other authors, information on COVID, the vaccine etc. A book putting together all of the information would be worthwhile as a reference. Recognize that there will be a movement in our media and government agencies to re-write the facts to fit their previous actions. Having a "one stop" reference is always handy.
By the time a book is published it’s just history, although it my be entertaining. If your choice is between current events or a history book, stick with your current essays.
A question I would ask is what will the cost of the hardcover copy run? Hardcovers hold up better over time. My initial thought was I wasn't sure I needed to re-read them but then I considered folks I know who don't read this Substack and might find a book of Stack compilations an enlightening read. Might be a good reference down the road as well. I believe in books too. Electronic information can be disappeared more easily but harder for those who would seek to remove content of which they disapprove to go door to door to find the books and burn them. I hope you do it.
I would buy the book, but it is important to me that relevant sources cited be printed in full (or at least the substantive discussions or relevant charts) as much as practical, because I would be actively using the book to engage people who still don't understand what we went (are going) through.
Yes and would preorder. Despite having read them all, absolutely worth the $20-$30 to have all the best stacks in a concise book to be able to refer to.
The special email box with your greatest hits substacks is overflowing... Having it in one volume as a compendium/follow-up to Pandemia would be great on my shelf and as a reference.
This should go under the heading: How we got here. In high school (many years ago) we called that current events. Back in a time when there was a little less lying by public officials.
I'll order a couple for my Covidian relatives for next Christmas. I'm sure they will apologize for wishing me dead in January 2022 after they open their gift!!!
I want a few to secretly sneak up on those people in cars windows up, wearing a mask on a beautiful day alone. I would slip them into the window wipers on the front windshield and sneak away as only a vaccine hesitant non follower of the science CAN!. We are spry and elusive
LOL. Purebloods unite!
Just mail them randomly to your neighbors. My deep blue neighborhood here in Sacramento has to be 90% vaxxed.
They will die off slowly or quickly. I lost my best friend to the vaxx
Me too. 15 months ago. This sucks.
I'd rather cough or sneeze on them.
LOL
They'll probably be dead by then
Ya, they will read that and come around immediately!
My 5 times ( yes 5) vaxxed brother told my mom in March of this year he wasn't coming up for my birthday party at my mom's house because he still thought I should be in a camp for not being vaxxed, people like me drove the pandemic hrough mutations. He's a 55 year-old college educated scientist. We are doomed as a species.
On the flip side, it is always good to know where people stand.
Oh good grief, he is a scientist claiming that the “unvaxxed” drove variants…wow I am speechless.

Humans are easier to separate that way. The buffoons from the sensible.

Tell your Mom I will say a prayer for her and your Dad. They deserve better. And thankfully, they do have you. God bless you.

The only reason I'm still in Sacramento is because my parents are almost 80 and starting to need help. I can never understand those who leave their parents to fend for themselves at the end.
Geez! I thought I took heat! So sad fear literally drove critical thinking out the window!
For laughs, I took a peek today at the podcast listings for Dr David Osterholm, Covidian Extraordinaire. His most recent episode is “Not Out of the Woods Yet”. I’m thankful to be living in the real world and not the twisted one of the Covid enthusiasts.
I’m so sorry. It is good to know who you’re dealing with, but family is family and it’s hard to lose people that way.
Hope he's just a political scientist
Double major, Bio and Chem, worked in a lab 20+ years, got bumped upstairs to upper management 10 years ago.
Book smart is not scared smart.
Reverence for the Lord is the beginning of knowledge (wisdom.) A 1998 poll of the National Academy of Science members showed 92% atheists or agnostics. It is likely worse now. That is why we are where we are. If you kick God out at the beginning (materialistic naturalism) you end up in foolishness.
They say there are no atheists in a fox hole. I think we, as a society, are about to find that out.
Alex,
You kind of owe it to history to do this.
I don't need to reread but this might be good for non-subscribers. I have Pandemia and the Unreported booklets and made some family members read them. So there might be a market for non subscribers
I agree!
Me too!
I would also like to hear more of the individual stories you received, of how divided we became as a country, amongst families etc.
I've read Mark Crispin Miller's accounts of the deceased and injured, national and international, since he began documenting. Would like to have this area included, both macro and micro. Human interest stories of the healthy dropping dead/injured. I've kept his posts, quite the list. It would be very impactful to see this compiled as part of the bigger story.
A book on vax injury would be welcome.

your writing and data analysis has kept me (partially) sane since covid's inception. heartfelt thanks - and press on, please, Alex.
Completely agree. Me too.
I’d go for it….historical milestone kinda thing. Our “history” books may skip vital balance to the louder narrative.
Please include the definition changes used to hide their culpability, e.g., changing the definition of a vaccine, etc.
Special section revisiting ivermectin?
I think for the sake of preserving history, it’s important. I’d like to have my children read it.
Focus on the studies that point to the health damages. Know of 3 close friends/family all having health issues and sure enough it is their heart. 2 of 3 up to date and boosted and the other had at least the first 2 course of vaccination. Also, want to hear more on the neurological effects.
I think a visual timeline of all the covid misinformation would be very helpful to "connect the dots". Especially to show the skeptics. Love your work.
I’d order to support you! Maybe wait til Tucker starts a new show so you can sell it even better?
Here's what I'd like to have: a summary of all inappropriate government and pharma actions and the evidence-based rebuttal as to why these were illogical/useless/harmful.

Alex, I love your novels so much that I’d rather have another one of them rather that a re-read of your past Stacks.

I’d give copies to my former employer who I’m suing for firing me over refusing the jab. Since I need quite a few copies, paperback please.
I plan to buy and leave it around where my grandchildren will be able to find it some day. My teacher/ librarian mom told me not to throw away her encyclopedias because what was written couldn’t be changed. Oh how I wish I would have listened to her before she died.
The work you had done on COVID vaccine is great. It should be saved for historical purposes.
I like this idea for a book. I have friends/family who do not subscribe and seem to tolerate listening to me talk about what you've published on this Stack. Several of those friends/family are not fans of reading on the computer.

Two pairs of four words:
'The Real Anthony Fauci'
'Robert F Kennedy Jnr'
Done. 😉
Yes. For sure. I would love to have all of your posts in one volume.
yes and i'll pre order.
Audiobook is a great idea also. I’ve actually saved my favorites in a folder so when some bleep head has something to say I can pull out the article and tell them what’s up.
Me too!
Yes! We need to keep this info fresh for the next assault!
I think it would be great for those who missed your missives of the past few years.
Myself, I think that you are always at the front lines, very current. We need the heads up writing from you always.
I actually would love someone to put together an Alex Epstein style website. He made this to help people explain the logical fallacies of a lot of climate change policies.

I'd buy a handful of paperbacks to give to people who might one day be friends again.
