This book contains original essays that look at
contagious/infectious disease pandemics and the ethical public
policy and administration these have entailed. In
particular, the pandemics of the 1918 flu pandemic, HIV in the
1990s, SARS in 2003, Ebola from 2014–2016 and the novel COVID-19
in 2020 are highlighted. The contributions in this work offer the
reader insights in these and several other recent pandemics that
present differently—either via contagion or mortality rate—and
how each should be addressed by countries of various sorts. This
book is a must for the ongoing debate on how we should treat public
health crises, such as the one we have all just encountered in the
novel COVID-19 pandemic.
