A pandemic diary shaped by distrust

Susan F. Langlois presents a diary-based account of the Covid-19 pandemic, transcribed from entries she began keeping as her trust in government statements diminished. The book frames those events through her personal experience and professional background in biotechnology, including work with vaccine approvals, quality control, and clinical trials, followed by hospital volunteering and consulting with Ontario Health Teams. Its perspective is openly critical of pandemic decisions and institutions; the claims and judgments are presented as the author’s account, not as a neutral survey of the period. The diary format connects a public-health crisis with one individual’s changing views and insistence on documenting what she believed had been overlooked.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in personal accounts of the Covid-19 pandemic.
  • Readers seeking a critical, skeptical perspective on pandemic institutions and decisions.
  • Readers interested in a pandemic narrative informed by biotechnology and healthcare experience.

Book overview

Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, no mRNA vaccine had been approved due to safety and effectiveness concerns.

 

The pandemic provided an opportunity to fast-track this new technology and to establish a foothold on the market.

 

I slowly realized that nothing the government told us was as it seemed. They lied by omission and I initially fell for their lies. Once I realized this, I began to question everything. It was a slow awakening at first, but once the journey began, it quickly gained momentum.

 

My loss of trust inspired me to continue documenting the events in a diary, which I transcribed to create this book. Readers will be reminded of a time in our history that we would rather not remember, but forget is exactly what those who caused such devastation want us to do.

 

Those of us who were lied to, mistreated, ignored, censored, and slandered during the pandemic will and should never forget or forgive the atrocities carried out in the name of "science". Unfortunately, the world will continue to be ruled by those seeking financial gain and influence. It is up to us average citizens to keep them from repeating the perfect storm that was the Covid Pandemic.

 

My name is Susan Langlois, and I grew up in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I spent my adult life working in the city I called home and retired from my forty-five-year career in the biotech industry where I concentrated on managing international regulatory approvals, quality control, and global clinical trials of vaccines and immune therapeutics. After my retirement, I spent 6 years as a volunteer in a local hospital and as a consultant working with Ontario Health Teams during the pandemic.
