Abstract
This past year has upended the daily routines and patterns that so many Americans rely upon to structure their lives. Some of those most adversely affected by this sustained instability have been those battling mental illness and substance abuse issues. As the US nears the one-year mark of a uniquely isolating national tragedy, rates of alcohol abuse, domestic violence, and reported depression and anxiety are peaking. Healing systemic injuries like these will require more than vaccines. The experts on this week’s COVID Law Briefing ask what can be done, through policy or institutional leadership, to ensure a deeper recovery.
Description
The COVID-19 Law and Policy Briefings, hosted in two series from March 2020 through July 2021, feature US and international public health law experts discussing the biggest legal issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The briefings are produced by the George Consortium, co-sponsored by the Center for Health Policy and Law at Northeastern University School of Law, the Center for Public Health Law Research at Temple University Beasley School of Law, and the APHA Law Section. Visit Public Health Law Watch (http://bit.ly/COVIDLawBriefing) to watch episodes. All past briefings are also archived by The Week in Health Law podcast.
