In this episode of The Hale Report, Lyric Hughes Hale speaks with Ruby Wang about China’s rapid transformation of its healthcare system - and why it matters far beyond medicine.
Drawing on personal experience, economic analysis, and cultural insight, the conversation explores how healthcare has become central to China’s development model, its approach to aging and demographics, and its growing influence in biotech, digital health, and pharmaceutical supply chains.
The discussion also confronts one of the most persistent barriers to understanding China: fundamentally different assumptions about privacy, data, and the relationship between the individual and the state.
