The COVID-19 pandemic has affected every human being on the planet
and forced us all to reflect on the bioethical issues it raises. In
this timely book, Gregory Pence examines a number of relevant
issues, including the fair allocation of scarce medical resources,
immunity passports, tradeoffs between protecting senior citizens
and allowing children to flourish, discrimination against
minorities and the disabled, and the myriad issues raised by
vaccines. KEY FEATURES A thorough overview of the many ethical
issues connected with the COVID-19 pandemic. Engages with empirical
data and the real-world practical problems that bear on pandemic
response. Informed by foundational ideas in ethics as well as the
latest in bioethics scholarship. Examines COVID-19 in the context
of other historical pandemics. A portion of the revenue from this
book's sales will be donated to Doctors Without Borders to assist
the humanitarian work of nurses, doctors, and other health care
providers in the fight against COVID-19 and beyond.
