While it's more about the flaws in how scientific consensus are used with respect to areas that are (or should be) debatable, the video does a good job of introducing some of the problems with the overlap of the pharmaceutical and public health agendas.
I'd love to see a followup that takes this idea and looks at a different angle, such as ways that scientific "consensus" was invented and propagated to benefit political agendas. Or done so from a lack of respect for the public's ability to deal with information and nuance (e.g. simplify the situation and distill complex factors into a one-size-fits-all prescription for behavior).
