About this episode
The World Health Organization says monkeypox is now a global health emergency. The new declaration comes as infections surge in 75 countries, with 5 deaths and more than 16,000 cases reported so far. It’s one of three health emergencies the world is facing right now, along with the coronavirus pandemic and polio – with the US reporting its first new case of polio in almost a decade. To discuss the state of global public health, how concerned we should be, and who is most vulnerable, epidemiologist Anne Rimoin joins the show.
Also on today's show: International Atomic Energy Agency head Rafael Grossi; former US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
