While the uneven government response to the COVID-19 pandemic may have been responsible for thousands of unnecessary deaths, the pandemic revealed larger issues of health inequity across U.S. society. Andy Slavitt, former Biden White House COVID-19 senior advisor and acting CMS administrator, has outlined the mistakes made, the larger picture of healthcare in America, and prescriptions for alleviating some of those problems. He will be in discussion with Towsley Policymaker in Residence and health advocate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed.
