Gabrielle Baker: Connecting Māori life expectancy back to current health policies
Māori health ‘privilege’ starts in childhood with a 30X higher risk of rheumatic fever, continues in adulthood with later diagnosis, fewer treatments, and worse outcomes, and ends with an overall death gap that is a remarkable 7 years earlier than Pākehā. In this episode we talk with Health Policy Specialist Gabrielle Baker about whether current health policies will fix this, or make this woeful situation even worse.
