Description
"[A] powerful, enlightening and moving chronicle of our time. 'And the band played on' follows the struggle of a handful of strong-willed men and women who took on the fight to save lives. Dr. Don Francis [is] a researcher at the Centers for Disease Control who seeks to uncover the cause of a number of mysterious deaths. With little funding for a subject few will even discuss, not only must he fight the disease, but a disinterested public, the government, the media and even the communities where the mysterious virus strikes hardest. But as the death toll mounts, public interest is stirred and Francis' research becomes a desperate race against time"--Container.
