The Real Face – and Cost – of Men’s Poor Health in the U.S
Men’s life expectancy in the U.S. is falling behind men in other developed countries. As a result, the burden of men’s health is felt across the community and economy, costing the U.S. $420 billion from just the top five causes of premature death—many of which are preventable.
In this episode, authors of Movember’s “Real Face of Men’s Health” report, Peter Fisher and Derek Griffith, explore the reasons behind that staggering price tag and the “perception gap” that keeps men from seeking the help and support they need. Tune in as we unpack how the missed opportunities for prevention impact men, as well their families and caregivers.
Guests:
Dr. Peter Fisher | Research Fellow at Movember and co-author of Movember’s new report, “The Real Face of Men’s Health”
Dr. Derek Griffith | Professor and co-author of Movember’s new report, “The Real Face of Men’s Health”
