[Dr. Tom Frieden @DrTomFrieden]

What if the greatest lifesaver in history… isn’t a doctor?

We celebrate the drama of one life saved in the ER—but what about the millions saved in silence, before danger strikes?

That invisible hero is public health—quietly preventing outbreaks, reducing cancer, heart attacks, and strokes, and extending healthy lives without us even realizing it.

💭 But no one asks: How do you measure lives that were never lost—and how can we save even more?

In The Formula for Better Health, Dr. Tom Frieden pulls back the curtain on the unseen systems that shape our health, revealing how understanding them could protect you, your family, and millions more.

An excellent miniround from the cardiology team on peripartum cardiomyopathy. Key messages…do not stop at telling the patient to go on contraception, follow up and make sure they start as another pregnancy can worsen it. Multidisciplinary approach is key.
