Public Health is Dead

Public Health is Dead is 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 era 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.

Introducing Public Health is Dead

If you have a feeling something isn’t quite right in the world of disease control...If your kids are sick of being sick (and their teachers are too)...If your favourite artists keep cancelling their shows because of another "mystery illness"...Or if you’ve been suffering for years with Long COVID and can’t believe we’re still not warning people about COVID’s aftershocks...This show is for you! Dearly Beloved, welcome to Public Health is Dead. You can find dozens of bland public health shows that say a lot of nothing. This show is different. It's a scrappy indie show keeping an archive of truth, punching above its weight, and building up resistance to institutional abandonment. Public health as we know it is failing us.
