It shouldn't take a crisis to make us talk about public health - with Howard Koh
Public health is invisible when it works and only noticed when it fails.
In this episode, Dr. Howard Koh reflects on the chronic underfunding, political challenges, and cultural barriers weakening America’s public health system, drawing from his leadership experience during crises like 9/11, anthrax, H1N1, and the ACA rollout. He underscores the undervaluing of prevention and the difficulty of making invisible successes visible and frames public health as a spiritual calling rooted in meaning and service.
Tune in and learn how we can reignite the public health torch and carry it forward, together!
