Dr. Jeff Barke and Dr. Mark McDonald bolster your Informed Dissent by giving you 30 minutes with Dr. Aaron Kheriaty. He is the Director of the Medical Ethics Program at the University of California Irvine. Dr. Kheriaty refuses to take the injection and is currently in a legal battle with UCI Health. UCI Health, in alleged retaliation, has placed him on “investigative leave” which essentially cuts the doctor’s income to a non-sustainable level. By Tuesday (10/19), because he will not concede, Dr. Kheriaty will be placed on fully-unpaid leave which he believes is an effort to force him into resigning.
