Kathleen Sabo is joined by Dr. Will Barnes to discuss medical ethics. Do we have an ethical responsibility to care for others as well as ourselves? Where do I end and you begin and how can medicine address this social dilemma? With a rise in individuals choosing not to use vaccines, what are the ethical implications of large groups of people choosing not to become vaccinated? Of requiring vaccinations? Does society have an ethical responsibility to provide access to medical care in an equitable manner?
