Reducing benefits will not get disabled people back to work, and explaining overdiagnosis 32:35

32:35

The UK’s chancellor has announced a £5bn cut to benefits, much of which will be borne by those on long-term disability allowance. Gerry McCartney, professor of wellbeing economy at Glasgow University explains about why these cuts will not only hurt the most vulnerable, but will be counterproductive to the government's wish to get people back to work. Also, Suzanne O'Sullivan, consultant neurologist and author, joins us to talk about her new book "Age of Diagnosis". The book used clinical cases to explore the issues of medicalisation, and Suzanne explains why overdiagnosis doesn't mean that care isn't needed.

What does the death of NHS England, and the western alliance, mean for health? 37:48

In the UK, the prime minister has announced the disbanding of NHS England, Nigel Crisp - former chief executive of the NHS, explains why he thinks that it’s important the health service is closer to the political decision makers, and why this could be the time to really acknowledge the healthcare emergency. On the international stage, the Trump administration's withdrawal from the WHO is throwing global health into disarray - Illona Kickbusch, founder of the Global Health Centre at the Graduate Institute in Geneva, joins us to explain which new alliances are emerging, why the funding that has disappeared may never be replaced, and how tech will surpass pharma when it comes to industry influence. Finally, there is a triple burden of malnutrition for adolescent girls in south Asia - which creates a cycle of ill health that is hard to break. However, Zulfiqar Bhutta, chair in global child health at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, thinks the region can come together to change both government and society to champion young women’s health.

Finally, our annual trip to the Nuffield Summit is not complete without a roundtable, this year we asked the question "What is stopping staff from speaking up?". Our panellists raised the usual issues of hierarchy and psychological safety, but also how the lack of positive change from senior leadership has habituated people into thinking "why bother".

Can a deal be done to keep the US in the WHO? 29:31

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to withdraw the US out of the WHO. This would cut funding for the UN’s medical agency by one-fifth. Will they really exit, or can a deal be made? Lawrence Gostin hopes so, and as a professor of law at Georgetown, and director of the World Health Organisation Collaborating Center on National and Global Health Law, he is working with senior US and WHO officials to try and understand what reforms could be made to WHO what would allow a such a deal to be be struck. Gostin also believes that the president cannot withdraw from the WHO with an executive order, but instead requires congressional approval - and is exploring the options for legal challenge to the move. 00:00 Intro 01:01 US history with the WHO 03:31 Executive order 06:35 WHO’s relationship with China 11:14 Funding 12:47 Benefits to US from the WHO 18:05 H5N1 threat 19:43 World benefits from US involvement 21:57 A deal to be made? 24:55 Legal action? 26:37 Administration responses Read Professor Larry Gostin’s co-written opinion piece on the dangers of a US withdrawal from the WHO here: https://www.bmj.com/content/388/bmj.r116…
