Publisher's Synopsis
Professor Luke O'Neill has become one of the most well-known and trusted voices of Ireland's COVID-19 pandemic. A world-renowned Immunologist, he was thrust into the spotlight as the media and public desperately grappled to make sense of a crisis that saw the country grind to a halt. In these high-octane diaries, Professor Luke reveals what life was like behind the scenes. Set against a national backdrop of banana bread baking, Tik Tok dancing and outdoor bingo Luke's lockdown diaries reveal the highs and lows of work at the cutting edge of science in his Trinity College lab; the disappointments, breakthroughs and contribution science made to the health outcomes of millions of people globally; dealing with the anti-vax and anti-mask trolls on Twitter; the multi-millioneuro sale of his company Inflazome and his own COVID-19 scare and period of self-isolation at home.
