Today we will be talking with Anna Carolina Ortiz, a long-time public health professional and leader. Anna is going to talk to us today on the social determinants of health, what they are, how they impact our lives, and we will be taking it a notch up, and looking at the social determinants of health, at a global scale. She will share with us a few stories, they may or may not be from the U.S to show us how similar circumstances can look and the impact of the social determinants of health, despite living in different places, even countries. This is the first of a two series, so say tuned for the next part next Friday!
