A grassroots organization of health professionals called “Defend Public Health” has released a new report on the root causes of illness in the United States. In this #CareTalk episode, health care expert Elizabeth Jacobs of Defend Public Health talks about how to get beyond false, flawed and fundamentally incorrect interpretations of science, medicine, and disease outcomes to improve our health with evidence-based public health policies, with show host, cancer survivor, and health care advocate Laura Packard from Health Care Voices.
