Description
Global Health in the Time of COVID is a miniseries from the Institute for Global Health Sciences at UCSF produced by Carry the One Radio. Each week, we speak to health experts at UCSF to learn more about them, their work, and how the COVID-19 pandemic has changed their practice and research. In this week's episode, we talk to Dr. Madhavi Dandu, a clinician and professor of medicine at UCSF who directs the Master’s Program in Global Health, and Dr. Elizabeth Fair, an infectious disease epidemiologist who directs UCSF’s PhD Program in Global Health. We discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the course of Global Health education, why the US’s pandemic response has fallen short, and what we can learn from looking abroad. This interview took place on May 28th, 2020 and reflects the state of the news and scientific literature at that time. This episode was produced by Ben Mansky and Nancy Cai. Music used in this episode: Slow Lane Lover, Dance of Felt, San Diego Sunday, and Hundred Mile by Blue Dot Sessions. News clips used in the introduction are courtesy of Cleveland Clinic via the CDC.
