Coronavirus is decimating the planet right now, and it's made far worse by the fact that we don't have a public healthcare system. We talked to Adam Gaffney, president of Physicians for a National Health Program and a doctor at Cambridge Health Alliance and Harvard Medical School, about this.
Forgive the self-promo in a time of society-wide breakdown, but: the book by host Micah Uetricht and Jacobin staff writer Meagan Day, Bigger than Bernie: How We Go from the Sanders Campaign to Democratic Socialism, has had its release date bumped up to March 24. Please preorder it! It's 20% off from Verso: https://www.versobooks.<wbr />com/books/3167-bigger-than-<wbr />bernie
