[Editorial] Support for a publicly funded health system in the USA

On Nov 8, a high-level panel —Health for All: #Walktogether—was held in New York City, NY, USA. It brought together two Elders—former Secretary General of the UN Ban Ki-moon and former Director General of WHO Gro Harlem Brundtland—and local health activists and politicians to discuss the need for publicly funded health systems in order for governments to deliver universal health coverage (UHC) by 2030. This event was held as part of a global tour that marks the tenth anniversary of the founding of The Elders, an independent group that provides leadership on the most pressing issues facing humanity.
