'A brilliant exposé' - Danny Dorling
Covid-19 has exposed the limits of a neoliberal public health
orthodoxy. But instead of imagining radical change, the left is stuck
in a rearguard action focused on defending the NHS from the wrecking
ball of privatisation.
Public health expert Christopher Thomas argues that we must emerge
from Covid-19 on the offensive - with a bold, new vision for our
health and care. He maps out five new frontiers for public health and
imagines how we can move beyond safeguarding what we have to a radical
expansion of the principles put forward by Aneurin Bevan, the founder
of the NHS, over 70 years ago.
Beyond recalibrating our approach to healthcare services, his
blueprint includes a fundamental redesign of our economy through
Public Health Net Zero; a bold new universal public health service fit
to address the real causes of ill health; and a major recalibration in
the efforts against the epidemiological reality of an era of
pandemics.
