Although we don’t often think about it, changes in society can have profound impacts on patterns of disease. In fact, our seemingly ordinary life choices can have harmful and lasting effects on the health of our communities. In this colorful, story-filled talk, Dr. Lorber uses real-life examples to show how travel, dietary patterns, use of leisure time, sexual behavior, medical progress, alternative medicine, the weather, and even politics can change patterns of infectious diseases.
