#407: Waking Up and Challenging the Narrative

Blyss and Stu discuss a wide range of topics affecting maternity and healthcare, from home births and their underestimated safety to the new regulations threatening the role of doulas. They critique flawed studies, including the infamous Wax paper, and highlight a recent ruling by the European Court of Justice holding doctors accountable for administering COVID-19 vaccines without proper prescriptions. They also address the ethical dilemmas faced by healthcare professionals, and underscore the importance of storytelling in preserving factual information about birth practices. The episode concludes with a listener letter, reinforcing the need for informed, compassionate care in maternity services.
