Guest: Kathryn Chu | Director and Professor, Centre for Global Surgery at Stellenbosch University

Katheryn Chu, Director and Professor, Centre for Global Surgery at Stellenbosch University, reflects on a study she led showing a complete prohibition on the sale of alcohol makes for an empty hospital trauma unit, but partial measures do not.
