How Measles Deaths Are Being Erased From the Record with Jessica Malaty Rivera Sep 24, 2026

Show notes

Pennsylvania's measles outbreak has claimed its fourth death — all unvaccinated — even as the CDC's public dashboard shows zero. Chelsea Clinton talks with epidemiologist Jessica Malaty Rivera about the politics behind that disconnect, including RFK Jr.'s reported push to alter the CDC's count, and how "died of" versus "died with" a disease is being twisted. They also unpack the EPA's removal of cancer risk estimates from air pollution data and newly released 9/11 air quality documents.

Why Gen Z is Drinking Less and Millennial Women are Drinking More with Dr. Katherine Keyes Sep 10, 2026

Show notes

New research from Columbia University is challenging long-held assumptions about alcohol, including what “moderate” really means and whether there’s a safe number of drinks for men and women. What does the evidence actually tell us about alcohol? Why are drinking patterns changing? And as more people reach for THC instead of alcohol, what do we know about the tradeoffs? To help us separate fact from fiction, Chelsea speaks with the study’s author, Dr. Katherine Keyes, a professor at Columbia University whose research focuses on psychiatric and substance-use epidemiology.

How AI Is Quietly Reshaping Healthcare with Dr. Ashwin Vasan Jul 30, 2026

Show notes

Can AI really help you make sense of your health – or is it creating new risks? Physician and public health leader Dr. Ashwin Vasan joins Chelsea to explore how AI is reshaping healthcare – from patient-facing chatbots and diagnostic tools to insurance approvals and clinical decision-making. Together, they discuss why so many people are relying on AI for health information, where these tools can genuinely improve care, and why human judgment remains essential. They also unpack the hidden ways AI is already influencing healthcare behind the scenes, the risks of bias and inequity, and what it will take to ensure this technology improves health outcomes instead of widening existing gaps.
