Alliance/Members Meeting – An Evening with Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, Stanford Univ., COVID Epidemiologist
11/13/2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm MST
This is a special event hosted by the Tucson Alliance and open to the General Public.
Dr. Bhattacharya was opposed to lockdowns and mask mandates as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. He was a co-author in 2020 of the Great Barrington Declaration, which advocated lifting COVID-19 restrictions on lower-risk groups to develop herd immunity through infection, while promoting that vulnerable people could be protected from the virus.
Dr. Bhattacharya is a Professor of Health Policy at Stanford University and a research associate at the National Bureau of Economics Research. He directs Stanford’s Center for Demography and Economics of Health and Aging. His research focuses on the health and well-being of vulnerable populations, with a particular emphasis on the role of government programs, biomedical innovation, and economics. He holds an MD and PhD in economics, both earned at Stanford University.
