When formerĀ New York TimesĀ journalist Dan Koeppel texted his cousin Robert Meyer, a twenty-year veteran of the emergency room at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, at the beginning of the Covid-19 crisis in the United States, he expected to hear that things were hectic.Ā On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being overwhelmed, where do you think you are?Ā Koeppel asked. Meyerās grave replyā100āwas merely the cusp of the crisis that would soon touch every part of the globe.Ā

In need of an outlet to process the trauma of his working life over the coming months, Meyer continued to update Koeppel with what heād seen and whom heād treated. The result is an intimate record of historic turmoil and grief from the perspective of a remarkably resilient ER doctor.Ā Every Minute Is a DayĀ takes us into a hospital ravaged by Covid-19 and is filled with the stories of promises made that may be impossible to keep, of life or death choices for patients and their families, and of selflessness on the part of medical professionals who put themselves at incalculable risk.Ā

As fast-paced and high-tempo as the ER in which it takes place,Ā Every Minute Is a DayĀ is at its core an incomparable firsthand account of unrelenting compassion, and a reminder that every human life deserves a chance to be saved.
