Leading the nation’s main disease control and prevention agency is Mandy Cohen, M.D., M.P.H. Who is she and the organization she represents? In this week’s Reform Pharma ‘Good Morning CHD’ special, hosts take viewers through the following, to answer that exact question:

Dr. Cohen’s inroads into the government sector
Her campaign for COVID vaccines and public pushback
Whether media rhetoric used is consistent with that of the CDC’s actions
The prevalence of conflicts of interest among public health officials
Big Pharma’s exploitation of medical journals
How and why trust in institutions has waned or otherwise disappeared entirely
Following protocols versus practicing medicine, prescriptions taking precedence over healing …and more!

Plus, have you or someone you know experienced a traumatic birth? Guest Emmy Robbin has. But rather than letting that define her, Emmy embarked on a mission to advocate for mothers and educate families so that they can prevent and heal from the pain that sometimes accompanies the process of pregnancy, labor and delivery. Hear from her on ‘Good Morning CHD’ today, and watch shows, like this one, on CHD.TV!
