The Global Health Council, in presenting its 35th Annual Conference, is sponsoring scientific sessions to discuss issues of concern to individuals working in the field of public health. The Council uses reasonable efforts to provide a balanced presentation of issues in an atmosphere of civility, but the Council is not responsible for the views presented or the discussions that occur. The views presented at the Annual Conference’s scientific sessions and on conference video, website, publications, etc. are those of the presenters and not necessarily those of the Global Health Council.
