AB Time for planning is hard to come by but essential to invest in when much is on the line for people with disabilities facing public health crises. This point is underscored in the book Disability Justice in Public Health Emergencies, edited by Joel Michael Reynolds and Mercer E. Gary. This collection of essays provides a disability justice lens to philosophical and pragmatic critiques of pandemic responses during Covid-19. The book unpacks the composition and effects of misguided policies and programs on people with disabilities during the pandemic and outlines helpful recommendations. Readers will come away with a greater sense of what it takes to achieve pandemic preparedness that is focused on proactive, intersectional, and equitable solutions for people living with one or multiple disabilities. The reader will also gain an appreciation for the varied opportunities to seize before the next pandemic.
