In this episode, we discuss everything public health. We delve deep into the historical origins of public health in the US and how we got to where we are currently. We also discuss what makes up public health and what we propose to fix it. We feature a special guest on this episode, Valentina, one of our cousins who is studying epidemiology/public health and she provides some insight into the current public health crisis. You can follow her on her linkedin page as well as her instagram page @valentinagmzh.
