Everything is Public Health
Everything is public health and public health is for everyone.So many things impact our health. The physical things around you, the social interactions, the policies you may never notice, are all quietly there, protecting our health and well-being in subtle ways everyday. Some are there on purpose to prevent bad outcomes, some are issues that we still need to address, but most go unnoticed by many of us. This is the world of public health; a science of understanding the countless forces and designing solutions to help prevent or mitigate harm and improve the health and well-being of the people. Every Thursday, this podcast explores a concept and delves into those hidden forces. Welcome to Everything is Public Health.

Public Health in Retrograde - Deleting Public Data
Deleting data and research is book burning. No need to read 1984, we’re living through it. Data is a representation of reality. By controlling data, one can control our understanding of reality, and in the hands of an autocratic regime erasing data is a highly effective tool for erasing dissent. After all, no one can claim the regime is causing problems if no evidence of said problems exists. We are witnessing the full scale dismantling of our science and institutions. -o-Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/everythingispublichealth Bluesky Social: @everythingisPHMastodon: @everythingispublichealth Email: EverythingIsPublicHealth@gmail.com Photo Credit: Photo by Enayet Raheem on Unsplash https://unsplash.com/photos/white-printer-paper-with-black-text-0UxQZNoLnlk?utm_content=creditShareLink&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=unsplashSupport the show

Public Health in Retrograde - FEMA or large scale disaster response
We are about to witness multiple tragedies, and just how much cognitive dissonance people can have.
