Last week we explored the impact of COVID 19 on inner city communities in and around Baltimore, Maryland. Some populations around the globe are being hit harder than others; globally our response to this pandemic has been less than adequate. We were especially unprepared to mitigate the impact the pandemic, that have devastated much of the world, had on the economically, socially and medically vulnerable. Slowing the spread depends, in large part, on how we respond to these populations. The Global Health Security Index: Building Collective Action and Accountability report, dated October 2019, articulates essential recom- mendations for global governments to consider as a means for the prevention, detection and rapid response to enormous public health threats. Are these recommendations the answer? Will they assist us with post pandemic preparedness to respond to our most vulnerable populations?

Today's guests are Dr. Joshua Sharfstein, Dr. Patti Magyar, and Dr Lisa Cooper
