On this episode Chris is joined by Cameo Anders, a South Dakota lawyer and bioethicist, and Dr. John DiCamillo, a staff ethicist at the National Catholic Bioethics Center. They take up the topic of vaccines, which have remained prominent in national and state political conversations. They discuss the moral analysis used when a vaccine has a connection to an abortion linked-cell line, some considerations that are applicable to the question of moral duty, and the question of mandates. They seek to integrate principles of conscience, charity, and the common good, which are at times pitted against one another or given inadequate attention in civic discourse.
