What are your recommendations for apocalyptic novels involving pandemics that aren’t related to zombies? As much as I like zombie fiction, I also like works involving airborne “get sick and die” viruses; how patient zero spreads it, how hospitals become overwhelmed, the mass panic, how the military tries to contain it, how infrastructure breaks down, the mass die-off/desertion that follows, etc.
A small list of works I’m already aware of: *The Stand, Station Eleven, Year One, Year Zero, Pandemic: The Beginning, Influenza: Viral Virulence, The Last Tribe, How High We Go in the Dark*
