Excellent talk and message. I preach this to my nurse practioner students continually. The healthcare system is talking the talk in the US but not walking the walk of prevention. The practice of diagnosing and treatment far exceeds that have prevention.
Great talk. Agreed. The whole business of health has been 'pharmaceuticalized' and more money goes into treatment than prevention. Public health has done more to save lives but received less credit.
An excellent overview of some simple ideas that could easily lead to exceptional breakthroughs in global health. The barriers to achieving those breakthroughs are not lack of knowledge, technology or money. Rather, they are merely conceptual, and thus within our grasp.
We are in same journey of mission prevention from last 20 years, proud to being indusite🙂 Thank you Dr. for more crystal clear focus about health prevention in our and in our society life.
I have both Social Security Medicare, AND a separate co-pay insurance supplement that I pay out of my own pocket. But when I went to go in for a routine physical prior to my upcoming surgery, THEY REFUSED TO PAY FOR EVEN ONE PENNY OF IT. Wait a minute... they'll pay $50,000. for a surgical procedure, but not the $200. it costs for a goddamned ANNUAL PHYSICAL?? I once thought that preventative care was a good idea, just like going in for an annual dental checkup. When I missed mine a few years a while back, I got a abscessed tooth, the dentist had to pull my largest molar, and it will cost me SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS TO GET ONE DENTAL IMPLANT TO REPLACE IT. Try coming up with that kind of cash when you're 71 and retired!!! In the entire world of health care and medical insurance, WHY ISN'T THERE AFFORDABLE INSURANCE FOR DECENT DENTAL CARE??? I suppose that Uncle Sam just doesn't believe that having healthy teeth is good idea.
I disagree with his comments about companies not reporting on the health of their employees. Most mining and oil companies have health and safety and the statistics for the company on page 1 of the annual report.

More money should be allocated for prevention of diseases than is done for treatment
Thats 👍
💓 Let's spread positivity and break the stigma
Excelente 👋

GREAT TED TALK!
Wonderful overview!
"can you ever imagine the applause for an epidemic averted?" this quote didn't age well
It aged well , shows how we have been focusing on the wrong goals.
So Ted, what can we do to inspire D.C. and the American people to make a change? And at what price? And how to pay for it?
