In this epsiode, we turn our attention to distrust in medicine, from an ethical and a medical point of view. How does distrust affect the relationship of marginalized people to medicine? Where does it come from? What can we learn about this phenomenon in light of the ongoing covid-19 pandemic?

To answer these important questions, we had the pleasure to hear from Phoebe Friesen, professor at the Biomedical Ethics Unit and Department of Social Studies of Medicine at McGill University, and from Vardit Ravitsky, professor at the Bioethics Program, School of Public Health at the University of Montreal.
