“For every meal provided by a food bank, SNAP provides nine,” says Allison Duda, Bloomberg @AmericanHealth Fellow.
“SNAP is a vital source of nutrition, providing support to more than 480,000 people in our area.” americanhealth.jhu.edu/news/…

Public health innovations are all around us—and sometimes you don't even notice them. Here are four examples highlighted by faculty from the Bloomberg @AmericanHealth Initiative. americanhealth.jhu.edu/news/…

Life expectancy is an important measure of our #publichealth efforts. While new data from the @CDCgov reports a slight rebound to 78.4 years in 2023, a report from the Bloomberg American Health Initiative (@AmericanHealth) highlights how the U.S. lags behind the United Kingdom, where life expectancy is 2.7 years longer. Causes of preventable deaths like cardiovascular disease, overdoses, gun related incidents, and motor vehicle crashes are contributing to a decline in life expectancy and demand urgent public health action. We must continue advocating for evidence-based solutions to close this life expectancy gap. Read more in @Forbes: forbes.com/sites/joshuacohen…

Food insecurity remains one of most widespread public health issues affecting Americans today. We caught up with @AmericanHealth Fellows Allison Duda from @FoodBankMetroDC & Kelly Quintero from @FeedingAmerica to see how they're expanding access to affordable, heathy food.

Mike Bloomberg just launched a broadside against RFK Jr., told @AmericanHealth summit that it would be "beyond dangerous" and "medical malpractice on a mass scale" for the Senate to confirm him.

In my speech at the Bloomberg @AmericanHealth Summit today, I expressed my hope that President-elect Trump and Senate Republicans re-think the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — an anti-vaccine crusader and peddler of junk science — to oversee public health and medical research, and choose a leader who respects and values the life-saving power of vaccines.
