America's fight against COVID felt like a never ending battle over who had a right to be safe, to get a vaccine, to work at their place of employment and to visit places of entertainment. Rules around vaccines, restaurants, schools and businesses provided the fuel for the question of "which way worked better?" Which areas saw more deaths, kept people employed and fostered the educational success of children? In "COVID Wars," former tech CEO Ronald Gruner dug into the data to determine which strategies worked to save lives, which worked to save jobs, and which minimized social impact? He explains how data is the key to everything, and how the war over the best ways to respond to the COVID pandemic fractured the country.
