A call to make count of law enforcement-related deaths visible

Harvard faculty member Nancy Krieger, PhD, is lead author on a study published in PLOS Medicine that calls for the CDC to to make law enforcement-related deaths (both those cases involving victims of police violence, as well as deaths of law enforcement agents in the line of duty) a “notifiable condition” which would allow public health workers to report this data in real-time. Learn about the how this increased visibility could help to prevent these types of deaths in this NPR story, as well as in this Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health’s news release.
