Understanding Healthcare with Sam FeudoAuthor: Sam Feudo
Healthcare is constantly evolving, from the way we develop lifesaving treatments to how care is delivered. There's no better example of this than during the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to make our healthcare system more affordable, accessible, and high-quality for all, it is important to better understand how the system currently works and can be improved in addition to new ideas to promote our own health and wellbeing. In the Understanding Healthcare podcast, Sam Feudo speaks with leaders in academia, business, and government about the most important healthcare issues of our time.

Episode 8
Wednesday, 5 February, 2025
In this episode of Understanding Healthcare, I sit down with Dr. Adam Ratner, Professor of Pediatrics and Microbiology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and Director of the Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at NYU Langone Health. We discuss his upcoming book Booster Shots: The Urgent Lessons of Measles and the Uncertain Future of Children’s Health, the growing epidemic of vaccine hesitancy, and how to rebuild trust in science. Dr. Ratner also shares his thoughts on the ethical tensions between personal freedom and public health, the biggest infectious disease threats facing children globally, and what gives him hope for the future of healthcare.
