Exciting news🎉! We've just launched the first edition of Syndemic Magazine online at syndemic.ca!
Over 6 editions, we treat Covid-19 as a "syndemic": not just a natural disaster, but contextualized within a socio-economic order which shaped its genesis and impact.
Brandon Cordeiro retweeted
This first edition is edited by @macksmilkshakes, with articles, reviews, and interviews from @mica_amy, Matt Sparke and @luciavitale_, @bcordeir15, Ian McKay, Nancy Fraser, and Andreas Malm!
Please share widely, and we hope you enjoy!
