Скачать или смотреть Global Health Inequities with Dr Tom Catena and Mary Beth Powers

The COVID-19 pandemic has halted or reversed progress in global health. From the shortage of vaccines and medical equipment to the increased rates of maternal and child mortality, it has laid bare health limitations around the world and magnified the stark inequities between low-income and high-income countries. The pandemic has also renewed concerns about inequality and underscored the need for an equity-focused global health approach.

Dr. Tom Catena is CMMB’s longest serving volunteer, working for over 20 years in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan at Mother of Mercy Hospital. Dr. Catena joined Mary Beth Powers for a discussion on the diverse challenges facing low-resource communities and CMMB’s goal of reducing the drastic health inequities experienced in low-income countries.
