Covid-19: A Socialist View toward Vaccines, Public Health Policy & the Failures of Capitalism

Covid-19: A Socialist View toward Vaccines, Public Health Policy & the Failures of Capitalism

The Coronavirus pandemic coupled with the capitalist system has caused unspeakable suffering in the United States and around the globe. Failures to adequately prepare and respond to the public health emergency led to massive unemployment, hunger, poverty and death.

How should socialists react to this phenomenon?

Brian is joined by by Eugene Puryear. He is the host of the podcast The Punch Out on BreakThrough News and host of the weekly live show The Freedom Side on BreakThrough News, which airs every Thursday on YouTube.com/BreakThroughNews at 3 p.m. Eastern/12 p.m. Pacific.
