Everything is Public Health

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. 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. Public health saved your life today, and you probably didn't notice. https://www.everythingispublichealth.com/

HIPAA, Data privacy, wearable techs, watches, rings, and mass surveillance: How our eroding data privacy protections are a danger to our collective public health. Also, maybe be more wary of period/fertility tracking apps.

The draft of the second report from the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) commission, Make Our Children Healthy Again: Assessment, is as stupid as it is dangerous. One of the clearest example of propaganda. They say they want to make children healthy but are dismantling everything that keeps us safe. 

*Note: The report was published shortly after we recorded. The language of deregulation they used in the draft did not chan...

The fearmongering pseudo-science grifters now want you to get skin cancers. American sunscreen is decades behind the rest of the world, but this doesn't mean we shouldn't use them.

Barring international students and mass deportation is an idiotic level of self-sabotage.

The Kids Online Safety Act has one giant problem. 

There are genuine concerns regarding kids and teens interacting with the internet, and we should approach this like any other public health problem. What we shouldn't do is have another moral panic and allow these massive platforms to control even more of our lives.

A critical service propped up almost entirely by volunteers. Perhaps we should support this more. Also, be more careful when you go outside folks.

It seems like the people most vocally against gender affirming care have no idea what it is. Also, JK Rowling sucks and Harry Potter is mid. 

Shame on LA Children's Hospital for shutting down the gender affirming care center. They abandoned the people they were supposed to serve, capitulating to a bigoted tyrant.

The explosion in online gambling, sports betting, and fantasy sports is creating a corresponding explosion in problem gambling and gambling addiction. This, unsurprisingly, is bad.

The 15 minute city is a simple urban planning concept that prioritizes the people's health and wellbeing, with the added benefit of reducing environmental impact, pollution, and inefficiencies. It is arguably the best way to design an urban space. So why do the conservatives have a full blown moral panic about it?

Regulations are written in blood. Whose blood are we using? 

The CDC Injury Center has been fully gutted. For the foreseeable future, we will not know what is killing us. This is proactive deregulation, as a lack of evidence of a problem can be used to justify the lack for more rules and policies.
