Live conference from MEAA Sydney, Jan 22nd 2020, with Dr Jill Stein MD and fellow 'Doctors for Assange' in Australia, UK & Bolivia. Hosted by veteran investigative journalist Wendy Bacon.

On Christmas Eve 2019, Julian Assange called an old friend to say that he is slowly dying inside Belmarsh prison. In November the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture had warned that Julian Assange’s treatment in Belmarsh prison may soon end up costing his life. Julian Assange has been assessed as showing all symptoms typical for exposure to prolonged psychological torture, which is a life threatening condition. Over 100 medical doctors have written to the UK and Australian governments demanding Julian Assange’s immediate transfer from prison to hospital on urgent medical grounds, as a life-saving measure. Governments have failed to respond.

"That doctors should have to write open letters to the UK and Australian governments to demand appropriate health care for a victim of torture is beyond belief".

Dr Stephen Frost, signatory, Doctors4Assange.
