Regular PW Podcast contributor, “Dr. MedLaw” discusses doctor-lawyer communications, in light of several recent prominent news stories about lawyers revealing client communications coming out of the investigations into attempts to interfere with the 2020 election. With most physicians taking it as a given that what they tell an attorney is shielded from discovery, she answers the question of whether doctors should be worried that the attorneys representing them could be forced to reveal their communications.

Also, Haillie Meek, DVM, MPH (New York State Epidemic Intelligence, CDC), explains her recently presented report on how the ongoing Canadian wildfires have impacted ER visits in New York for asthma exacerbations. At the time of this recording on September 10, more than 1,000 fires were still active in Canada, including about 650 deemed to be out of control.
