Class Description:
When a flu epidemic threatens our nation or state, how should we as a society decide how to ration scarce medications? When should we end extraordinary measures for a loved one with a terminal illness? Join Rabbi Cahana and Mel Kohn, M.D., M.P.H., Assistant Director for Public Health - State Public Health Officer, will lead an interactive conversation about Jewish and physician perspectives on questions involving medical ethics. The discussion will cover issues both macro and micro. And many questions in between.
