This episode contains strong language.
When the coronavirus hit the United States, the nation’s public health officials were in the front line, monitoring cases and calibrating rules to combat the spread.
From the start, however, there has been resistance. A Times investigation found that 100 new laws have since been passed that wrest power from public health officials.
What is the effect of those laws, and how might they affect the response to a future pandemic?
Guest: Mike Baker (https://www.nytimes.com/by/mike-baker?smid=pc-thedaily), the Seattle bureau chief for The New York Times.
