Still responding: 25 years of 9/11's evolving health crisis: Part 1
Episode 245
Thursday, 10 September, 2026
This year marks 25 years since 9/11 — remembered for the lives lost that day, but also for a health crisis still unfolding for those exposed to Ground Zero's toxic dust and debris. Jacqueline Moline, MD, who helped launch medical surveillance for 9/11-exposed patients within weeks of the attacks, joins Sandra Lindsay, DHSc, MBA, to describe the earliest symptoms she saw — including the relentless "WTC cough" — the far wider range of people affected beyond firefighters and police, from construction workers to Lower Manhattan residents, and how the health toll unfolded in waves over the following decades. Northwell is New York State’s largest healthcare provider and private employer, with 28 hospitals, 890 outpatient facilities and more than 16,600 affiliated physicians. We’re making breakthroughs in medicine at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research.
