Obviously, this is an unfavorable moment to be pushing the use of governance and #PublicHealthLaw to, you know, protect public health, but that is a reason to deepen the commitment to the use of law as a shield and a sword to advance public health and counter #StructuralViolence.

For the record, I research the effects of firearms laws on health outcomes using tools from #PublicHealthLaw and #LegalEpi. As important as these laws are, you aren’t going to solve antisemitic hate crimes through firearms laws.

Both important!

But don’t confuse means with root causes here.

(Note: Vaccine laws are certainly an area of competence for me but there are scholars in #PublicHealthLaw who have made federalism and vaccine law their central area of focus. Please find them, and if you don't know who they are, please ask me and I will be only too happy to connect you!)

Important. If we aren't increasing capacity for #PublicHealthLaw among working public health professionals, we are missing a huge opportunity. @changelabsolutions.bsky.social is a leader in this effort.

Columns: Teaching Health Law Training Future Public Health Professional in Law: Results from a Pilot Curriculum Florence Pham1, Jami Crespo2, Montrece Ransom3 and Tyra Satchell2 1National Center for STLT Public Health Infrastructure and Workforce, DRT Strategies, INC., Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, United States; 2ChangeLab Solutions, Oakland, United States and 3National Network of Public Health Institutes, St. Louis, United States Abstract Recognizing the increased demand for public health law skills within the public health workforce, ChangeLab Solutions, in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, conducted a pilot program to increase knowledge of law among public health students. In partnership with a team of curriculum consultants, ChangeLab Solutions developed and piloted a curriculum across eight public health programs that consisted of six modules which focused on defining public health law and explaining its role in shaping health outcomes and inequities. Faculty members that piloted the modules found students had an increased knowledge of public health law concepts after completing the modules. Faculty members also experienced several barriers that might hinder effective delivery of the curriculum. Integration of public health law concepts into public health coursework within SPPH is one method of increasing students’ preparedness and capacity to use legal tools in addressing health outcomes and inequities. Keywords: public health law; public health; law; policy; curriculum; curricula; schools and programs of public health; SPPH; health equity; inequities
