Contakt World LLC, a technology company modernizing public health and safety, revealed on Tuesday that it has released the second episode of the "Contakt World: Truth in Health" podcast, which is available on iHeartRadio and other popular streaming sites for podcasts.

"We hope this episode and the podcast as a whole helps shed light on the many compounding factors that led to this crisis so that it never happens again."

According to the company, this week's episode of Contakt World dives into the hot-button issues of race, equal access to healthcare, and the political determinants of health - specifically, how historic inequities in the health system have never been more apparent.
The podcast raises important questions about who is affected most by COVID and why, who deserves to receive care and how can we treat everyone equally - both in society and in the hospital.
As COVID disproportionately affects communities of color, the show talks with national health equity leader Daniel E Dawes, executive director of Satcher Health Leadership Institute at Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta. A co-founder of the Health Equity Leadership and Exchange Network (HELEN), he shares unique insights from the frontlines of the healthcare reform movement, and provides a thorough overview of how the country, even got here.

Tracker Ventures Corp (CSE:TKR) (OTCMARKETS:TLOOF) (FRA:B2I) and Contakt World are parties to a definitive amalgamation agreement following which Tracker will indirectly acquire a 100% interest in Contakt World.
