For the next many posts, I will be introducing you to the various speakers. The first is Nancy Burke, who will also be facilitating part of the webinar. As I noted yesterday, Nancy is Professor of Public Health and Anthropology and John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation Endowed Chair, University of California, Merced. Her chapter in Viral Loads describes the systems of surveillance and governance of the Cuban state as care practices, tensions between public health measures and cultural practices, and how individuals and groups supported each other during the pandemic.
