As an emergency room physician, Chris Johnson has worked on the front lines of the opioid epidemic. He argues that the epidemic is not an accident, and that the medical industry and its system of incentives have in fact created this crisis at the expense of effective, compassionate medicine driven by science. Dr. Chris Johnson is a nationally recognized expert on the opioid and heroin epidemic which currently claims over 25,000 American lives per year. He has spoken throughout the country on this topic to medical and non-medical audiences alike, and brings an urgent message on the need to reform a medical industry that has prioritized business interests over patient safety. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
