Overview

No Time to Breathe: Voices from the COVID-19 Pandemic preserves the firsthand accounts of those who stood on the frontlines of one of the most devastating public health crises in modern history. Over a million Americans lost their lives to COVID-19, and countless others were permanently scarred-physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This volume gathers the unfiltered testimony of nurses, physicians, EMTs, respiratory therapists, and other essential workers who bore witness to the darkest days of the pandemic. Through candid narratives, these contributors describe the exhaustion of endless shifts, the fear of bringing the virus home to their families, the heartbreak of patients dying without loved ones at their side, and the moral injury of navigating a system pushed to the breaking point. Their voices, by turns grieving, furious, and resilient, provide an irreplaceable human record that statistics alone cannot convey. More than a history of events, No Time to Breathe is an act of remembrance. It refuses to let the world forget what truly happened inside hospitals, ambulances, and ICUs during those years. For students of history, healthcare professionals, policymakers, and anyone seeking to understand the lived experience of the pandemic, this book offers both testimony and tribute. It honors those who endured, those who were lost, and those who continue to carry the weight of memory.
