Overview
“Stigma and Its Consequences During the COVID-19 Pandemic”
Author and associate professor of sociology at Fordham University Evelyn L. Bush, Ph.D. delivers a clear and thoughtful look at how governments and media quickly created a new pariah class: the unvaccinated. During the COVID-19 response, they weaponized stigma in their efforts to engineer the population’s participation in a colossal clinical trial of a completely new mRNA-based vaccine technology. Drawing on classic studies of obedience and conformity together with careful analysis of real research, Dr. Bush shows how fear-driven policies divided families, workplaces, and communities — to the detriment of all.
The book reveals the deep human cost of institutional power. Written in straightforward language, it brings valuable insights into the mechanics of social control and scapegoating. Yet it also offers quiet hope: by truly understanding these patterns, we can resist them and better protect human dignity when the next crisis arrives.
