About this Event
Title: Rethinking our approach to health after a pandemic: Lessons learned from Covid-19.
Synopsis: We are approaching the end of a pandemic whose impact has also caused us to engage with new ways of thinking and doing. This Covid-19 moment should be a moment for public health to take stock, a moment to ask: who are we? What are we doing, and why?
Dr. Galea submits that a forward-looking public health should aspire to a radical vision of a better, healthier world for all, and should have the wisdom to achieve that world through gradual reform, guided by reason. He will discuss the implications this has for how we do what we do, informed by an analysis of what we did well—and not—during the pandemic.
About Dr. Galea: Dr. Sandro Galea is Dean and Robert A Knox Professor of the School of Public Health at Boston University. He is also a physician, social epidemiologist, prolific author and widely cited scholar.
