Polling Public Health: A Deep Dive with KFF’s Liz Hamel

Bonus Episode of Paging America

On this week’s bonus episode, Miles and guest host Dr. Kristin Lyerly sit down with KFF’s Liz Hamel, one of the country’s leading experts on health polling, to unpack new data on how Americans feel about federal public health agencies and the information they get from them.

Together, they discuss what Americans believe about vaccines, the CDC, and the controversial “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) movement. Liz explains how KFF tracks health attitudes across party lines, why trust in public health institutions is falling, and recent trendlines since the MAHA movement has gained popularity.
