The State of the State’s Health

Each year, the President of the United States delivers a constitutionally required “State of the Union” address to Congress. These days, it’s a staged television event wherein the President lays out their priorities and agenda, announces bold new initiatives, and tries to bolster public support. Invariably, they declare the state of the union to be “strong” while noting all the challenges facing the nation. It’s become such a popular platform for elected officials that now we get “State of the State,” “State of the City,” and “State of the Borough” addresses in New York. What about the State of the State’s Health when it comes to New York? Are we preventing and treating illness? Is health care accessible, affordable, and equitable? <a href="https://davidsandman.medium.com/the-state-of-the-states-health-7d01b05c382a">Website</a>
