This talk was recorded on March 31, 2020. In a special "Coronavirus Conversation" with Dr. Leana Wen, professor of public health at George Washington University, she shares with TEDxMidAtlantic curator Dave Troy her thoughts on how we might adapt to living with this virus, and how we need to shift our behavior to deal with this new reality. And they discuss the idea that dealing with coronavirus isn't so much an "event," as it is an ongoing process. Dr. Leana Wen is an emergency physician and public health professor at George Washington University. Dr. Wen previously served as Health Commissioner for Baltimore, Maryland , where she oversaw more than 1,000 employees with an annual budget of $130 million; two clinics that provide more than 18,000 patients with reproductive health services; and mental health programs in 180 Baltimore schools.
A board-certified emergency physician, Dr. Wen was a Rhodes Scholar, Clinical Fellow at Harvard, consultant with the World Health Organization, and professor at George Washington University. She has published over 100 scientific articles and is the author of the book When Doctors Don’t Listen. In 2016, Dr. Wen was honored to be the recipient of the American Public Health Association’s highest award for local public health work. In 2018, Time Magazine named her one of the 50 most influential people in healthcare. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
