The disinvestment in public health agencies and the workforce following the 2008 financial crisis has been well-described. The COVID-19 Response explores how these cuts impacted the ability of public health to respond to the pandemic.
The topics include what is population health during a pandemic and how is it different that clinical medicine; federal, state, and local response to COVID-19; testing for COVID-19; implementation of public health control measures; use of public health emergency powers; addressing health equity; resignation and firing of public health leaders; vaccination planning; the future of public health after COVID-19.
Written for leaders and practitioners working in public health practice and academia, as well as students in public health undergraduate and graduate level programs.
