Kevin Hazzard - Author of "No One's Coming" - 2014 Ebola Rescue Missions - Part 1 of 2 - HC0071

In this episode of Hazard Class, Jake sits down with bestselling author, former Atlanta paramedic, journalist, and television writer Kevin Hazzard to discuss his gripping new book, No One's Coming. Known for his acclaimed works A Thousand Naked Strangers and American Sirens, Hazzard has built a reputation for uncovering the untold stories of emergency medicine and the extraordinary people who answer the call when others won't.

The conversation takes listeners behind the scenes of one of the most remarkable medical rescue operations in modern history—the evacuation of Ebola patients from West Africa during the devastating 2014 outbreak. Kevin shares how he discovered the story through the team at Phoenix Air and spent years interviewing pilots, physicians, nurses, engineers, and aid workers to reconstruct the dramatic mission. Together, Jake and Kevin explore the challenges of turning complex real-world events into compelling narrative nonfiction, the psychology of healthcare providers who willingly enter high-risk environments, and the critical role preparation plays when disaster strikes.

They also discuss the parallels between Ebola, COVID-19, and other public health emergencies, the recurring cycles of fear and misinformation that accompany disease outbreaks, and why some individuals are drawn to the most demanding and dangerous corners of emergency response. Along the way, Kevin offers a fascinating look into his writing process, from conducting hundreds of hours of interviews to adapting his books for film and television.

Whether you're a firefighter, paramedic, healthcare professional, pilot, emergency manager, or simply a fan of incredible true stories, this episode delivers a powerful examination of courage, service, leadership, and the people willing to risk everything when lives are on the line.
