Visit The Hastings Center's COVID-19 Ethics Resource Center
Pandemics inevitably raise ethics concerns; vulnerable populations are disproportionately affected, and control measures such as closing schools and limiting public gatherings balance individual liberties against the public welfare. These issues are explored in Hastings Center publications and other key resources on our new COVID-19 ethics hub. In addition to our new ethics guidelines for health care professionals (above), there are essays from our blog, Hastings Bioethics Forum; a chapter on pandemic planning from our Bioethics Briefings book; and articles from our archives about Ebola for the lessons they provide. A section of additional resources moves beyond our own publications to provide information we think everyone should know about, including from WHO, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Academy of Medicine, and the U.K.’s Nuffield Council. We will update the resources as conditions evolve. Visit our COVID-19 ethics hub.
