Matthew X. Wilson: To start, could you say a bit about how you came up with the idea for the book project? Were there any specific events that made you interested in looking back and reflecting on public policy during the COVID-19 pandemic? Stephen Macedo: I was going on leave in 2022, and I knew that I wanted to write a book on the current political moment and the highly polarized politics that we are involved in now. Specifically, about how progressives were not paying sufficient attention to conservative concerns on certain issues in a way that was undermining the strength of progressive arguments and positions. I was planning to focus on abortion, immigration, and COVID. Of the three, COVID—and COVID policy—happened to be the subject I knew the least about. Once I started working on it, I realized that was just a huge topic in itself and one that not many people were working on. So I decided to focus on COVID. Professor Frances Lee—with whom I had been consulting from the start—and I did a workshop together on COVID policy and had various folks come in, including Dr. Jay Bhattacharya. After that she decided to sign onto the project, which I was delighted by. So we wrote the book together after that.
