Amid a growing consensus that the staggering toll of gun violence in the United States is an urgent public health issue, the Johns Hopkins University’s Bloomberg School of Public Health has convened experts on gun policy and violence from the United States and selected other countries to summarize relevant research and its implications for policymakers and concerned citizens. Legal scholars weigh in on the constitutionality of recommended policies, and researchers present new data on public support for a wide array of policies designed to reduce gun violence.

In my room I have an original piece of artwork by Sally Huss which says, "Around me I wear a coat of many colors, fabrics, and textures. It’s made of friends and family here and no longer here, far and not so far. They are all part of my coat which keeps me warm wherever I go." A few summers ago, I noticed a hole in that very coat. One of my best friends developed an eating disorder. As the disorder progressed I knew I needed to find help for her, and fast. I made the decision to approach her, express my concerns, and offer my support. The extraordinary thing is, despite her fears, she put her trust in me and leaned on my shoulder.

Congress passed it. President Obama signed it into law. The Supreme Court has ruled it constitutional. And Obama's re-election virtually ensures the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as ObamaCare, will be implemented in full, with the prospects of wholesale repeal all but impossible. In fact, many provisions of the new law are already becoming a reality with major new regulations set to start soon.

Technological innovation is deeply woven into the fabric of American culture, and is no less a basic feature of American health care. Medical technology saves lives and relieves suffering, and is enormously popular with the public, profitable for doctors, and a source of great wealth for industry. Yet its costs are rising at a dangerously unsustainable rate. The control of technology costs poses a terrible ethical and policy dilemma. How can we deny people what they may need to live and flourish?

The media constantly bombard us with news of health hazards lurking in our everyday lives. But many of these hazards turn out to have been greatly overblown. According to author and epidemiologist Geoffrey C. Kabat, this hyping of low-level environmental hazards leads to needless anxiety and confusion on the part of the public as to which exposures have important effects on health and which are likely to have minimal or no effect.

Ett långt och lyckligt liv är vad så gott som alla önskar sig. Vi gör vad vi kan för att leva så länge som möjligt. Säkerligen borde det väl evolutionärt sett vara bättre om vi levde längre än vad vi gör, så att vi kan få större spridning på våra gener? Trots detta har evolutionen byggt in ett bäst-före datum hos människan. Därmed ställs vi inför den eviga frågorna: hur hanterar vi att livet har ett slut? I denna bok undersöker författaren Johan Frostegård hur livet kan förlängas utifrån de senaste upptäckterna inom vetenskapen.

In der Medizin sagt man, die Therapie darf nicht schädlicher sein als die Krankheit. Überträgt man dies auf die weltweiten Maßnahmen zur Eindämmung des Coronavirus, müsste man wohl von einem der größten Kunstfehler der Geschichte sprechen. Die indirekten Kollateralschäden der Therapie stehen in keinem Verhältnis zu den Schäden durch das Virus selbst. Der Journalist und Bestsellerautor Jens Berger zeigt anhand zahlreicher nationaler und internationaler Beispiele, welche Schäden die Corona-Politik verursacht hat und immer noch verursacht.

Unser Gesundheitssystem steht unter hohem Veränderungsdruck: Wir leben aufgrund bahnbrechender medizinischer Fortschritte immer länger, jedoch führt unser zunehmend ungesunder Lebensstil dazu, dass wir immer häufiger an chronischen Krankheiten leiden. Dies treibt die Kosten im Gesundheitswesen in die Höhe und bringt unser erfolgreiches System ins Wanken. Die Digitalisierung im Gesundheitswesen zu forcieren, ist ein möglicher Weg, den Kostensteigerungen zu begegnen und gleichzeitig Kranke besser zu versorgen.

Appell für eine wirklich patientenorientierte Medizin! Krankenhäuser und Praxen haben sich in den letzten Jahren mehr und mehr zu Wirtschaftsunternehmen entwickelt - zum Nachteil der Patienten und des Personals. Das System ist strikt auf Gewinn ausgerichtet, gleichzeitig ist eine enorme Verschwendung an menschlichen und materiellen Ressourcen zu beobachten. Überversorgung und Mangel sind die beiden Seiten einer Medaille. Die Corona-Pandemie hat es wie unter einem Brennglas gezeigt: Einerseits sind wir enorm leistungsfähig, andererseits schlecht organisiert und unterfinanziert.

Von Anfang an verfolgten die Investigativjournalisten Katja Gloger und Georg Mascolo, wie ein Virus namens Sars-CoV-2 das Leben, wie wir es kannten, auf dramatische Weise veränderte. Sie erlangten exklusiven Zugang hinter die Kulissen der Politik, die trotz früher Warnungen so gut wie unvorbereitet getroffen wurde.

A very wise physician has said that "every illness has two parts - what it is, and what the patient thinks about it." What the patient thinks about it is often more important and more troublesome than the real disease. What the patient thinks of life, what life means to him is also of great importance and may be the bar that shuts out all real health and happiness. The following pages are devoted to certain ideals of life which I would like to give to my patients, the long-time patients who have especially fallen to my lot.
