Is slim a choice?

Doctor Vincent Flink Amble-Naess has written a report at EPHI on obesity and medicines. Flink Amble-Naess notes that effective medical treatment for weight loss is available today. The question is who should receive it, how should the treatment be financed and how should we really view obesity and overweight?

On stage to discuss access to obesity medication are Vincent Flink Amble-Naess, health care debater Hanne Kjöller, Member of Parliament Karin Sundin (S) and Chairman of the Social Affairs Committee Christian Carlsson (KD). The conversation will be moderated by EPHI CEO Marie Söderqvist.
