This week, I speak with my AEI colleague, Sally Satel, a practicing psychiatrist and lecturer at the Yale University School of Medicine, about the rapid ideological transformation inside American medicine. Satel explains how medical associations shifted from clinical excellence toward activist missions, how flawed research, such as the now-debunked study claiming that black infant mortality could be halved if more black doctors cared for black newborns, shaped public debate, and how public-health leaders undermined public trust during the Covid pandemic.
