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.
