Public Health is Dead
Website: www.publichealthisdead.com
Public Health is Dead is an award-winning public health advocacy show. It’s a forward-thinking autopsy on how we’ve f*cked up in public health. How do we prepare for future pandemics while we’re already in the thick of one? And how do we reinvent systems that place some of us closer to death?
Through examining our past successes and failures, often through the lens of COVID, we plot a route out of apathy and denial towards health liberation for all. You’ll hear unusual tales of how we’ve battled infectious disease throughout history and mind-stretching interviews with undaunted public health advocates today.
This podcast is your anti-establishment field guide to surviving in the new age of pandemics — full of vision, hope, and a little punk rock attitude. Public Health is Dead is a eulogy for the field as we know it and a gathering of voices to map out where we go next.
