The NCBC’s Father Tad answered call-in questions about bioethics on a October 7, 2020, episode of EWTN’s Catholic Answers Live show. A range of fascinating topics were covered, including:

08:32 - What is the Catholic Church’s current teaching on adopting IVF babies in the form of embryos? 

19:25 - Is it true that aborted fetal tissue may be used in vaccines and we may take the vaccines as long as there is no other option? 

28:22 - Is it true that you are not truly dead when you donate your organs? Is it moral for a person to donate an organ to someone else, like a kidney? 

34:41 - What is the Church’s teaching on transgender hormone treatments and surgeries, especially on kids? 

46:31 - Should we be reaching out to these vaccine companies now requesting that they do not use embryonic cells?

50:32 - How should Catholics react if it is mandated for everyone to get a covid vaccine in order to go to work or school?
