Available additional physical forms:Summary: Relentless is the compelling story of how one of America's leading health care systems -- the Mount Sinai Health System in New York city -- mobilized to confront the defining health crisis of our time: the coronavirus pandemic. This book is based on unprecendented access to internal hospital documents and more than 100 candid interviews with the leaders of Mount Sinai's eight hospitals and its Icahn School of Medicine. It contains accounts of physicians and nurses on the front lines throughout the system who pushed themselves to the brink to save lives; of research scientists who urgently worked to decipher the virus and find ways to counter it quickly and safely; and of the brave patients, staff members, and medical students who summoned their reserves of energy, compassion, and courage to fight the disease. Relentless closes with an exploration and explanation of lessons learned--and of what needs to be done and what is being done to prepare for future pandemics and other health crises.
