If you’ve been paying attention to the news since, oh, say, 2020, then you’ll no doubt be aware that public health policy can often create tension. Having policies that affect public health can, and does, save lives, but not all policies affecting our health are “health policies.” Don’t worry, we’re going to break it all down in this episode of Crash Course Public Health, where we will discuss how an orthopedic surgeon’s love of racing helped create seatbelt policies in the US, and why sometimes laws governing what can be built where affect our health.

Chapters:

Seat Belts & Your Health 00:00

Understanding Health & Policy 2:21

Vaccination Policies 4:40

How Policies Save Lives 6:42

Review & Credits 12:33
