Introducing Into America

The Next Big Idea - Un podcast de Next Big Idea Club - Les jeudis

Into America is a new podcast about politics, about policy, and the power that both have in shaping the lives of the American people. Into America is hosted by Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter, Trymaine Lee, and features the journalists of NBC News.  Coronavirus is continuing to spread and Americans are relying on the healthcare system to save them if they get sick. But what if you’re one of the 30 million Americans who are uninsured? In this week’s episode, Trymaine Lee talks with Phil McCausland, national reporter for NBC News, about his reporting on the healthcare gap in North Carolina and the patients and providers hoping the system can survive this outbreak.  We also hear from Penny Wingard. As a breast cancer survivor, she’s immunocompromised and facing uncertainty about how to get proper care without health insurance coverage. In Charlotte, North Carolina, where Penny is from, federally funded community health centers are on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic for the uninsured. The toll that coronavirus is taking, both on the patients and the centers’ operations, may be irreversible.  Subscribe to Into America now: https://link.chtbl.com/7BcTGqT3?sid=description
