  • YOU DESERVE TO KNOW.

    If you have a feeling all is not well in the world of disease control,
    If your kids are sick of being sick (and their teachers are, too),
    If your favourite artists keep cancelling their shows because of a mystery “illness”... this podcast is for you!

    This show takes on the decline of public health in the era of COVID.

    Working against apathy and denial in public health can be exhausting when global leaders have washed their hands of responsibility for our collective health. We are far from ready for what the future holds.

    If you are sick and tired of bad public health decisions, you’ll like Public Health is Dead.

    Undaunted public health advocates examine what’s not working in disease control, why it matters so much for you and the people you love, and, importantly, what we can do about it to survive.

    Public health is failing us. And you deserve to know.

“These things frighten people. It’s best not to talk about them.”
“But, Dad, that’s like… ignoring a fire in the living room because we’re all in the kitchen, and, besides, house fires are too scary to talk about.”

— Octavia E. Butler “Parable of the Sower”
