What Really Happened at the CDC

What Really Happened at the CDC

Abdul and Katelyn discuss the week in public health, which includes:

  • Former CDC Director Susan Monarez’s Senate testimony, where she revealed a series of bombshell revelations about the chaos in the department
  • This week's ACIP meeting, and how it might affect access to the Hepatitis B vaccine
  • The good news that private insurers will be covering the cost of vaccines as normal
  • The Trump Administration’s move to clamp down on pharmaceutical ads

Then Abdul sits down with Dr. Annette Campbell-Anderson, Deputy Director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Safe and Healthy Schools, to discuss why more schools across the country are implementing cell phone bans.
