At the dawn of the 21st century, we can prevent, treat or cure most
of the deadliest diseases known to humankind—and yet millions
die needlessly every year because the benefits of modern medicine
and public health fail to reach them. What are the obstacles to
providing care to populations in need? From the villages of the
Gambia to the cities and towns of Thailand, from the sun-scorched
refugee camps of Chad to the teeming streets of
Bangladesh—this episode chronicles innovative health programs
and charismatic leaders who, against all odds, are Delivering the
Goods to millions of individuals—and inspiring a new vision
for the future of global health.
