Writer Frank Huyer is also an ER physician and reads a piece from his most recent book White Hot Light: Twenty Five Years in Emergency Medicine.

This is an interview he did with Pen America where he discusses the role of censorship in medicine during the Covid-19 pandemic that he touches on at the end of our conversation.
