Going a bit nuts, a ray of hope, finding the vaccine, inequities galore. Get the vaccine, keep wearing your mask, physically distance, keep the faith. Best listened to.

About the Show
Welcome to Health Hats, learning on the journey toward best health. I am Danny van Leeuwen, a two-legged, old, cisgender, white man with privilege, living in a food oasis, who can afford many hats and knows a little about a lot of healthcare and a lot about very little. Most people wear hats one at a time, but I wear them all at once. We will listen and learn about what it takes to adjust to life's realities in the awesome circus of healthcare. Let's make some sense of all this.

But, what a mess. I’m on all sorts of federal, state,
