Child health framed as an ignored national security crisis

Original: Child health is the national security crisis we keep ignoring

STAT argues that child health should be treated as a national security crisis, warning that the United States keeps neglecting the issue despite its long-term consequences. The opinion piece frames poor child health outcomes as a strategic weakness with economic and security implications, urging policymakers to prioritise children's wellbeing alongside traditional defence concerns.

Why now: A prominent opinion piece reframing child health as a security issue is prompting debate among health and policy readers.
