Play • 32 min

Speakers: Prof David Archard - Chair Nuffield Council on Bioethics, UK; Dr Joe Brierley - Chair, Clinical Ethics Service and Intensivist, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, London; Dr Sarah Aylett - Clinical Ethics Service and Neurologist Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, London.

In this session we discuss how innovative therapies should be considered for use in the COVID-19 pandemic. The ethics team from GOSH London and the Nuffield Council on Bioethics take into account the clinical needs of sick children and the imperative to 'do something', against the scarcity of solid scientific evidence about proposed treatments. The session is moderated by Prof Lynn Gillam, Children's Bioethics Centre, RCH.
