As the error points out, the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list file is causing the issue. That file is used (in the past) to get list of packages maintained as part of Medibuntu. But, "Medibuntu has now been shut down, the packages were either obsolete, unnecessary or moved to the official Ubuntu archive.". Therefore, it is better to remove that file from your machine.
Run the following command to remove that file:
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
Then run sudo apt-get udpate
