What is Public Health? Crash Course Public Health #1

- We often think of health as a self-centric phenomenon that begins and ends with "me", but as we'll explore throughout this series our personal health is just one plot line in a rich story of evolving research and policies that make up the world of public health. So what is public health anyway? Well, public health is an approach to preventing disease, prolonging life, and promoting health for literally everyone. It is a money-saving, life-extending, world-bettering cheat code for improving the world, so we'll spend the rest of this series examining how and where it is working, where it isn't working, and how so much of our health is influenced by the world around us.

It's good to see crash course covering this! It feels like I've spent the last two years fighting both individuals and organisations on the importance of prevention. Hopefully with a bit of a better understanding, people will realise we're actually trying to help.
Now if only I could get the government to watch this...
Aw man, I just finished my Public Health Nursing course! I could have totally used this. This series looks really interesting regardless!
as a fellow healthcare worker, you will never stop learning throughout your career
I will be finishing my public health nursing in two weeks
not me, a senior public health major, watching this video so i'm prepared when someone ask what is my degree for
Here's an interesting linguistic fact: did you know that the word "salute" comes from the Latin word that means "safety" or "good health"? A pretty fitting word to describe a formal greeting or expression of respect, since it means to pray for good health to whoever is being saluted. Variants of this word also appear in Romance languages for casually greeting others. The same Latin root also gave way to words like "salvage" and "salvation".
That is very interesting. Thank you for informing me of this!
I'm so excited for this series as someone who works in public health translation and dissemination! Woot woot!
My mothers life was saved 2 times by the public health system, and we spent no money. Obviously this is paid eith everyones taxes, but it's completely worth, everyone pays a bit, and any person can benefit of practically anything they need, even foreigners can have it for free if they're here. My family would NEVER be able to afford the amount of money it would have costed in a private hospital, and this is the reality for almost everyone in my country.
My mother gets a ridiculously expensive medication for free too, and it makes her life quality a lot better.
These people making others fear the taxes or anything just to keep paying TO LIVE is just a proof of how brainwashed people are by this sick system.
Yay! So happy to see you on crash course, Vanessa!! I've always loved your videos and excited to see you on another one if my favorite channels!
11:08 someone should send this to the UK government, who just cut 60% of their public health workforce
Wow, that's bad
@@themasquesaco Feels unreal, at least they could redirect the budget for prevention programs. Maybe they did that?
Yup and have reduced our funding in general. My council has had to stop some useful services because we don’t have the money :(
This course is very timely, I've recently gotten really interested in this subject and am seriously considering getting a master's degree in global public health starting next year, so the timing couldn't be better :) looking forward to this!!
This was so great!! At last! A Public Health series from Crash Course!! Definitely reliable reference for my students. Thank you!☺️
I took General Psych II and now currently taking Child Psych & Development and professor mostly uses Crash Course videos, really information❤️al🥰!!
Am a Student of public health at Daffodil international university, I enjoy this course. Thank you
As a public health professional and a longtime Crash Course subscriber, I'm really excited for this new series!
It's great to see you on Crash Course Vanessa! I had no idea you were working on this project. Looking forward to more :)
Great video! I look forward for more videos in this series.
I think it is telling than in the USA public health means "Promoting and protecting people's health", while, according to the UN's International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, which was signed by the USA on Oct 5th 1977, health, as a human right is about ensuring the access and enjoyment of THE HIGHEST ATTAINABLE STANDARD OF HEALTH.
Love love love y'all's videos. You should do a series on finances! It's so commonly misunderstood.
you real answered my doubts about the definition of Health . thank you
My grandfather was a doctor who worked in a Public Health function for most of his career ( 1920's - 1960's ) . My father was a Commissioned Officer in the Public Health Service after working in state health departments. Milk and food safety was his area. I grew up with it as a mission.
It pains me greatly to see the public turning against public health. It will cripple our nation if we don't reverse this.
Vanessa is a great host! Looking forward to more of this series!
This is a great topic that has what feels like more importance after the start of the cv pandemic
I too am delighted to see VH taking on this topic 😊
So excited for this!!
Me, an Australian, being super shocked hearing an Australian accent on Crash Course hahah
This should be something on ‘why the US is the only developed country in the world without universal healthcare’.
I'm finishing up my MPH so I need to get around to taking my CPH soon. So hopefully this will be a good refresher.
I start my MPH Monday, this crash course could not have come at a better time for me!!
I cannot wait to see your point of view on public health with a concentration in informatics
Today is my first day of my graduate public health course!!! Yay!!!
This is great, I was looking for something like this.
Excited for this!!
Not you guys starting a public health crash course series right before I start grad school for public health 😲
This seems pretty awesome!
Looking forward to this one!
What a great show. I have to study public health for my Health Science undergraduate.
Thank you so much! ❤
thanks public health is the health system tht is gonna make our future brighter
excellent content
Can't wait to start public health
Anti-corruption efforts and upgrading all schools to cover how health works could help to stem the paranoia that fights against any public health efforts.
Aww I love Vanessa Hill!
Im glad there is a crash course for this subject i majored in public health!
wonderful
Wow 🤩🤩🤩 It was something out of the world,, thanks a lot mam 😄🌸🌺🌻🌹🌷🌼💐
That's awesome....!
So informative
This course could change my mind if I would go for Nursing course. 🏥
Great video...
Very cool. Keep 'em coming Vanessa and team!
thanks Crash Course.
Yes, all the Vanessa you got … we’ll take it.
Engagement powers Activate 💪💪💪
Public health are action words, like "I love you". It's not just stringing words together, it's a specific set of actions that proves, through deeds, what you say.
The U.S. health care system says "I don't love you, I don't particularly care about you, but depending on your wealth, the quality of my service is directly commensurate with how much you can pay".
I’ve dealt with the US healthcare system a lot more than I even like to think about (I have epilepsy). This rings true on so many levels to me.
We can change that
@@keraatkins7833We can, but we wont.
Exactly
What an amazing host and subject, thanks crash course.
We will need to address resources needs; funding for humans, policy for authorities, PH in planning etc.
Noted
Our health energy
I miss the old crash course
It’s great that Public Health advocates for so many things that are apparently impossible to implement.
nice
How can i promote for public health management
ideally prevention and treatment cannot be separated, if to meet the exact the definition of Health as suggested by WHO, but why so that public health is not real sounding and implemented in most African countries ? would you love answer issue . thank you
❤️
prevention is better than cure
❤️💯
Or specifically targetting Black/African Americans in the marketing of commercial tobacco
HI I AM FROM BANGLADESH 🇧🇩
I didn't get the community garden thing. Who's going to work/cultivate the garden?
Weird. 🤔 I am recently searching about public health 😬
Super weird but Thank you 😊❤️
I am a nursing student and interested in PHN
Health concept was much before present in hinduisim
thank god i live in brazil and we have SUS (unfortunaly our current president is trying to ruin it, but still)
Viva o SUS!
It'sfunny you should mention Community Gardens as Community Farming was actually very common for a Long time in the Medieval Era, However Royalty wanted control and basically all community Farms were forcibly seized. The example I know of this was by an English Queen iirc.
Now if we only cared about the truth or even life...
Ayyyeee this is my major!!
Said WHO established a def for health in 1946 but WHO wasnt established until 1948? Date typo?
first. love your content
07:04 Living forever might not be all it’s cracked up to be; think of the poor Struldbruggs in “Gulliver’s Travels,” who live forever but do not stop aging. Theirs is a miserable existence.
That's a ridiculous strawman. Anyone who talks seriously about life extension will frequently mention that it has to go hand in hand with "health extension."

,iha
The phone vibrating noise is already irritating, I hope it doesn't persist for the whole season :-(

Soon come the comments praising "the system in Scandinavia," meanwhile us Scandinavians sitting in long waiting lists to get important procedures done.
i guess the grass always seems greener, elsewhere
Would you prefer a system where those lists are shorter, because people can't afford the treatment and therefore don't get on a list? I hope not.
11:11 "Public Health is often seriously underfunded" Funny how this turned into a health politics video...
"Congrats to everyone Who is early and who found this comment 🐼
