We want to answer “What is Public Health?”

Viral is a public health podcast for both public health nerds and the general public originally created by Linsey Grove and Quinn Lundquist in 2017 and now cohosted by Linsey and Megan Albertson. Public health consists of too many topics and professionals to name–but we’re going to try to cover it all. From baby bottle tooth decay to social justice, we will discuss the historical context, cultural relevance, and current connections to each topic while interviewing our colleagues in the field. You don’t have to work in public health to appreciate its quirky, omniscient existence. Welcome to Viral.

Podcast Topics will include (but are not limited to):

Public Health History

Current Events

Workforce Development

Leaders, Researchers, and Regular Folks

Factoids

Reading Suggestions

Candle Scents and Haikus!
