This book demonstrates that the COVID 19 pandemic asks for a a
global approach to bioethics. it describes how the pandemic affects
the experience of being in a world that is intrinsically
characterized by global connectivity. It demonstrates that a moral
vision is necessary to articulate this experience of connectedness.
Subsequently, a perspective of global bioethics is introduced,
which provides a broader framework than mainstream bioethics, since
it highlights the significance of both vulnerability and
solidarity. Through a unique global perspective the book addresses
the moral challenges of the pandemic, and places the confrontation
with death, disease and disability within a wider framework of
ethical concerns. This book is of important in the public debate on
infectious diseases, and of relevance to health professionals,
global health educators, public health experts,as well as policy
makers.
