Episode Description
Chicago's public health response to the pandemic has been focused on racial equity from the beginning—and the approach is paying dividends. Dr. Allison Arwady, Chicago's health commissioner, talks with Dr. Josh Sharfstein about the city's innovative efforts, why they chose to invest in building a public health workforce over bringing in outsourced solutions, and how she and her team have kept up the momentum over two long years.
