Dear John,
Our country cannot handle a public health crisis as big as the Coronavirus. That much has been made clear in the last few weeks. The root of the problem is a system that benefits a few at the expense of many. An epidemic of insecurity is what Dr. Abdul El-Sayed diagnosis this as in his new book Healing Politics. Standing at the crossroads of epidemiology (the study of the spread and control of diseases) and politics, Dr. El-Sayed provides a unique perspective our nation desperately needs at this time. Join us to hear how we can move beyond this epidemic and secure the future of America.
