Health Affairs is hosting a briefing and release of their July-August issue focusing on global health delivery. There, speakers will discuss "delivering affordable antimalarial treatments in a way that will avoid the development of treatment-resistant strains of malaria," "diplomatic efforts undertaken during an official boycott of polio immunization in Northern Nigeria" and "challenges involved in eradicating polio," how an affordable secondary-care hospital in Ecuador became financially sustainable, and "challenges involved in reducing the number of women in poor countries who die during pregnancy and childbirth."
The briefing will run from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. at the Capital Hilton, 1001 16th St., NW.
