Reshaping Governmental Public Health in Washington State
'We are in an era of
unprecedented change—and opportunity. The governmental public health
system is undergoing the most substantive transformation in decades—the
recession is taking a severe toll; the system has led the response to
the first influenza pandemic in over 40 years; and national health
reform will change how public health relates to the health care system.
We as public health
leaders must step up, work together, and design the public health system
we need—with the resources we have. Let me be clear: I believe that
there will be few opportunities for additional funds in the foreseeable
future. That makes the task of reshaping public health all the more
critical and timely.'
