We talk about the influence of racial inequalities on trust and healthcare outcomes, GPs being an advocate for their patients, and we ask what structural changes to the healt...

In this podcast, we talk to Howard Markel, a professor of pediatrics at Michigan, as well as professor in the history of medicine. He's written books on quarantines and epidemics, and was part of a team that did the medical and historical work that first showed the value of flattening the curve.
This is the first of 4 podcasts from our US colleagues, looking at the disease in that country, which will be publi...
