What lessons can we learn from public health victories like the eradication of smallpox? How can we expand those lessons to the fight against non-infectious diseases, too? And how can each of us become a better ancestor to the generations to come?
This episode is hosted by Dr. Judy Monroe, president and CEO of the CDC Foundation, in conversation with Dr. Bill Foege and Dr. Mark Rosenberg.
Dr. Foege is a renowned physician and epidemiologist well known for his contributions to the eradication of smallpox in the late 1970s. A former CDC director, Dr. Foege has spent his career championing the science and management of vaccines and vaccination.
Dr. Mark Rosenberg is a physician-scientist trained in infectious diseases, psychiatry and public health, who served as the founding director of CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control and as the U.S. assistant surgeon general. From 2000-2016, Dr. Rosenberg was president and CEO of The Task Force for Global Health, which was instrumental in providing people in the developing world with greater access to vaccines and critical medicines.
Through The Center of Global Health Innovation, Dr. Foege and Dr. Rosenberg codeveloped a project called “Becoming Better Ancestors™: 9 Lessons to Change the World,” dedicated to solving global health concerns and creating positive change for future generations.
