  • Summary

  • In 2019, 6.9 million individuals in the United States identified as American Indian or Alaska Native. Many of these individuals are part of sovereign nations inside the United States' boundaries but governed by their tribal groups. Indian health service has been in the news these past few months for their work regarding COVID-19 vaccinations and the impact the disease has had on these sovereign nations. Today's podcast is with CAPT Thomas Weiser, MD, MPH, and Jillian Doss-Walker, MPH from the department. Join us as we explore deeper into Indian Health Service and its impact on sovereign nations. We also explore how these sovereign nations are taking it upon themselves to improve their own people groups' healthcare. At the end of the podcast, we provide practical ways for individuals, medical and non-medical, to become involved. Global health is at our doorsteps.
