Written in the early 80s this story is about a plague that’s unleashed on mankind. The efforts seem remarkably familiar in today’s age of COVID-19. While some of the technology is out of date the general concept of the story is timely. A must read.

A classic In science fiction.
Now listening to this some 60 to 70 years after it was originally written I would call this retro science fiction. It starts off slow and a little bit disjointed. This may have been because it was originally serialized for a magazine.
Another aspect that creeps into the story is the prevailing political climate of the time.
The narrator was a bit stiff also.
