In a modern, functioning, democratic society, how should a public health crisis be handled? And what would America’s response to the coronavirus pandemic look like if we had a universal healthcare system such as Medicare For All? Michael discusses this with Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, a physician and epidemiologist and the former Health Commissioner in the City of Detroit. El-Sayed ran for Governor of Michigan campaigning on universal healthcare. His forthcoming book is titled, “Healing Politics: A Doctor’s Journey Into the Heart of Our Political Epidemic.”
