The Unscientific, Un-American Ethics of Vaccine Distribution

In this episode, Ben Bayer reads aloud his article, “The Unscientific, Un-American Ethics of Vaccine Distribution.” In that essay, he argues that it’s absurd to treat philosophers’ “intuitions” as standards for government distribution of the Covid vaccine. Bayer’s article was originally published in New Ideal, the Ayn Rand Institute’s journal, on April 14, 2021.
