ADRC 2021: Public Health & Health Care in a “Post”-Pandemic World

Introduced by: Clarita Santos, Executive Director of Corporate and Civic Partnerships, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of IL

COVID-19 has exposed a variety of shortcomings in our public health system. Testing was hit and miss. Contact tracing was virtually non-existent; plans about how to proceed were not to be found. National governance was missing in action. Some of the principal institutions for dealing with health care crises were gravely compromised and politicized. Trust in our health care system has been eroded. The anti-vaccination movement has gained traction—and this is just the tip of the iceberg of what has unfolded in the last year and a half. What went wrong? What went right? What can be done to correct the wrongs? What crises lie ahead?
