Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Anxiety and Depression and new local research
Q: How does telehealth figure into the discussion on access to care?
Telehealth offers lower-cost, more private options that can reduce stigma and queues, but it should complement, not replace, access to in-person, evidence-based care when needed.
Anxiety and Depression and new local research
Q: What are the main barriers to seeking formal mental health care discussed by the guest?
Stigma, concerns about confidentiality and employment, high out-of-pocket costs, and wait times due to a shortage of qualified professionals all deter people from pursuing formal care.
Anxiety and Depression and new local research
Q: What did the study reveal about willingness to engage with peer support?
Around 62% of respondents said they would be willing to receive support from peers with similar backgrounds or lived experiences, suggesting that peer-based options could play a meaningful role in Singapore.
Anxiety and Depression and new local research
Q: Tell us what the local study found about how many people with anxiety or depression seek formal care.
About 77% of those surveyed with symptoms did not seek care from mental health professionals, indicating a large gap between need and formal treatment.
Ebola: How soon could this rare strain have global impact?
Q: Is this Ebola strain simply a re-emergence of familiar outbreaks, or is it fundamentally different in its potential to spread?
The expert explains that while Ebola has had multiple outbreaks, the current strain appears to be spreading faster with a broader geographic reach, which is why global health authorities are emphasizing vigilance, surveillance, and travel-related precautions.
