About this listen
The doctor who once led the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sees trouble ahead:
- There’s been a significant decrease in people taking the COVID and flu vaccines
- Europe is experiencing the worst flu season in years (an early indicator of problems in the U.S.)
- CDC data show that Influenza infections are growing or likely growing in 41 states
“It’s not good…what we have seen from Europe is a very early and very severe flu season, something that could mean more hospitalizations.”
Dr. Tom Frieden says confusing vaccine guidance, limited access and weakened public health systems are contributing to fewer shots in arms. He also shares insights from his new book, “The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own.” He explains his “See, Believe, Create” formula for building a healthier future and his broader call for a public health system that listens to communities and makes vaccination easier. Dr. Frieden now leads Resolve to Save Lives, which works to close the gap between proven, life-saving solutions and the people who need them around the world.
