公共卫生, 公众的信任, and American Fragility in a Pandemic Era

This lecture will discuss how health care professionals and policymakers can use the lessons of the COVID pandemic to inform better public policy and treatment going forward. Drawing from his extensive experience in health care and policy-making, Dr. Goldfield will examine how we have emerged from the pandemic with increasing internal conflicts. He will analyze the stages through which division entered our public health discourse, and offer an alternative community based vision of how mental and physical health can be framed. 最后, Dr Goldfield will detail how our political system should change in response to the lessons learned from the pandemic to address critical issues contributing to American pandemic fragility such as increasing vaccinations, decreasing misinformation, and fostering greater linkages between our public and acute health systems.
