In an engaging conversation on CapRadio’s ‘Insight With Vicki Gonzalez’, KHN reporter Heidi de Marco delves into the lasting effects of wildfire trauma on children in Northern California. Meanwhile, KHN Florida correspondent Daniel Chang sheds light on the Southern response to the monkeypox outbreak on C-SPAN’s ‘Washington Today’. Both discussions offer valuable insights into the challenges faced by communities dealing with these crises. The impact of wildfire trauma can be likened to a deep-rooted scar that takes time and heal, requiring special attention and support. Similarly, the Southern states’ lackluster efforts in combating monkeypox have left LGBTQ+ groups feeling stranded, stepping up to fill the gaps in prevention and treatment. Looking ahead, it is crucial for policymakers to prioritize mental health services for wildfire-affected children and ensure comprehensive public health strategies to contain and manage infectious disease outbreaks. For more in-depth information and analysis on these important health issues, explore the original articles by Heidi de Marco and Daniel Chang linked in this Kaiser Health News (KHN) report.
