In case you missed it: MCN was abuzz this week with the the publication of a Health Network case study in the New England Journal of Medicine. Head over there to listen to an interview with Laz about social distance and migrant care [2]. A lot happened in health justice this week, and here’s a small sampling of articles that the MCN team shared for our weekly Five on Friday.
