Gun Violence

Gun violence is a major public health crisis in the U.S. and the number one cause of death for children aged 1-19. This week on Health Wanted, host Laurel Bristow and guest Nandita Somayaji explore how gun violence affects health and why research and prevention efforts are more critical than ever. Bristow then answers questions in the Q&A on a range of topics: CJD in the Pacific Northwest, veganism, measles and immune amnesia, the combination Covid-Flu vaccine, food inspections, and some advice for new possible MPH students is the Sick of the Week.
