The effects of ethical differences to the efficacy of the

government in resolving the current pandemic

Many of the conferences, meetings, and workshops convened in anticipation of


an influenza pandemic have focused on the specific strategies that can be used in
fighting such a pandemic. The contributors to this chapter take a different tack and
consider the creation of ethical guidelines for governments, health-care systems, and
clinicians to be used in planning for and responding to a pandemic. The authors identify
a set of ethical principles that should serve as a foundation for such guidelines; they
also discuss the importance of public engagement in the development of the guidelines
and the need for clear communication of the guidelines once they are done.

COVID-19 which started in Wuhan, China and swiftly expanded geographically


worldwide. This in turn raised numerous ethical concerns in preparedness, knowledge
sharing, intellectual property rights, environmental health together with the serious
constraints regarding readiness of health care systems into this enormous public health
crisis. From the restrictions on public freedom and burgeoning socio-economic impacts
to the rationing of scarce medical resources, the spread of COVID-19 is an
extraordinary ethical dilemma for resource constrained nations with less developed
health and research systems. In the current crisis, scientific knowledge and technology
has an important role to play in effective response. Emergency preparedness is a
shared responsibility of all countries with a moral obligation to support each other. This
review discusses the ethical concerns regarding the national capacities and response
strategies to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the deep link between the
environment and the increasing risk of pandemics.

The current situation of the worldwide coronavirus outbreak, and specifically in


the Philippines, has brought new concerns surrounding government ethics to the table,
as citizens are posed with dilemmas related to the government’s role in their daily lives.
Although the pandemic is impacting every part of society, this post focuses on dilemmas
that are especially prominent in the minds of members of Generation Z as they embark
on a transitional period in their lives. The impacts of this pandemic are expected to have
lasting marks on their lives, especially as many enter the workforce and adulthood.

Although some people may not believe in or care about the impacts of Covid-19,
their disregard for health puts others at risk, not just themselves. This brings the
question of the role that the government could have in enforcing certain restrictions.
How should they, if at all, use their power to promote adequate responses to the virus
while still ensuring citizens’ individual rights? For members of Generation Z, one of the
least at-risk groups for Covid-19, the need for collective action has been proven to be
absolutely necessary in the fight against the spreading of the virus. However, this
means that people must alter their daily lives and refrain from doing things like seeing
friends or attending events. The economy has come to a complete halt since the
outbreak. As more businesses close their doors and people lose their jobs,
unemployment rates have skyrocketed nationwide and continue to rise. This is leading
to the concern that the economy won’t be able to meet everyone’s needs. Although
Congress has passed legislation to help individuals and small businesses, state
governments may need to get involved.

For members of Gen Z, the potential inability of the economy to fully recover
poses a threat to their current or near-future role in the workforce. Many of the older
members of this generation are entering the workforce, either out of college or high
school, with entry-level jobs on their radar. If positions of higher experience and long-
term roles are kept, those in entry-level positions and internships may see their
opportunities and jobs disappear. Similarly, members of Gen Z are unlikely to receive
money from the stimulus bill passed by Congress.

Fake news and misinformation are common instances in our lives as social
media plays a large role in politics and our news consumption. Bad actors can easily
spread lies on any subject with little repercussion, and therefore consumers must take
responsibility for verifying sources into their own hands. What happens when people
who are part of the government contribute to the fake news, as most social platforms
allow them to do. During this time of pandemic, the cases of misinformation have
increased and in some cases, been pushed out by influential groups like TV networks
and government officials. This behavior by those in power is unethical, as it puts the
lives of the audience at risk when they take the information at face value.

As daily lives are changing, we are relying more on things like technology and
the internet to complete tasks that might otherwise have been done in person. As
children switch into online classes and people work from home, the topic of access and
what a government should ensure as basic rights for people becomes more relevant.
This is especially an issue as some Americans already lacked access to the internet
before the outbreak and now may be unable to pay their bills, with fear of losing such
access. Our ideas of what human rights are or what classifies as a necessity are shifting
and therefore we ask whether it is now the government’s job to provide those in the way
they help provide others.

The internet is one of the biggest sources that people are relying on now and
seeing as a necessity, especially members of Generation Z, who have grown up
alongside technology and require it for classes and jobs, yet until the pandemic, it was
seen as a privilege rather than a right. The economy has come to a complete standstill
since the pandemic. The unemployment rate has spiked and continues to rise across
the country as more businesses close and people lose their jobs. This leads to concerns
that the economy cannot meet everyone's needs. Congress has passed laws to help
individuals and small businesses, but state governments may need to get involved.

The care of patients during the COVID-19 pandemic has added many layers of
complexity to ethical issues. Our response emphasizes the importance of having an
ethically sound framework to inform our decisions, requiring caregivers to consider what
is ethically optimal and feasible for the patient. It is increasingly important to understand
the ethical principles and to appropriately apply them to both patient management
decisions and guide scarce resource allocation. If we are to be prepared to face the
many challenges of this pandemic, we must prioritize the ethical demands to our
treatment and management concerns.

The specific tactics that can be employed to combat a Highly pathogenic


influenza pandemic have been a major topic of discussion at many of the conferences,
seminars, and workshops that have been scheduled. The authors of this chapter adopt
a different approach and discuss developing ethical standards that can be employed by
authorities, healthcare systems, and medical professionals when preparing for and
combating pandemics. The authors establish a set of ethical concepts that ought to
serve as the foundation for such rules, and they talk about the significance of involving
the public in their creation as well as the necessity of clearly communicating the
standards once they have been completed.

COVID-19, which developed in Wuhan, China, quickly spread internationally.


This in turn brought up a variety of ethical concerns surrounding environmental health,
intellectual property rights, knowledge sharing, and readiness of healthcare systems for
this massive public health emergency. For countries with little resources and
underdeveloped health and research systems, the proliferation of COVID-19 poses an
outstanding ethical quandary because of the limitations on public freedom, growing
socio economic repercussions, and the rationing of inadequate medical resources.
Scientific knowledge and technology are crucial to an effective response to the current
problem. All nations have a shared commitment to assist one another in being prepared
for crises. The ethical issues surrounding national preparedness and response plans for
the COVID-19 pandemic are discussed in this paper along with the close connection
between the environment and the expanding danger of pandemics.

The current situation of the global coronavirus pandemic, and particularly that in

concentrates on problems that are top-of-mind for Generation Z as they enter a moment

Fake news and misinformation are a common occurrence in our lives, as social
media plays a huge role in politics and news consumption. Bad actors can easily spread
lies on low-impact topics, so consumers should take responsibility for verifying sources
themselves. What happens when people who are part of the government contribute to
fake news, as most social platforms agree to.

During this pandemic period, cases of misinformation increased and in some


cases were sidelined by influential groups such as television networks and government
officials. Such behavior by those in power is unethical because taking information at
face value puts the life of the listener in danger. Fake symptoms, case/death numbers,
and baseless solutions to the virus are all examples of misinformation circulating in the
media in recent months.
As our daily lives change, we become more dependent on things like technology
and the internet to complete tasks that we otherwise would have done directly. As
children move to online education and people work from home, the issue of access and
what governments should do to ensure people's basic rights become more important.
This is especially problematic because some Americans may not have internet access
already before the outbreak and be unable to pay their bills for fear of losing access.
Our ideas about what is considered necessary are changing. So I ask whether it is the
government's job to ensure human rights in a way that helps others.

The internet is one of the biggest sources of information people rely on today,
and we believe it is especially needed by Gen Z members who grew up with technology

Patient care during the COVID-19 pandemic adds layers of complexity to ethical
issues. Our responses emphasize the importance of having an ethical framework for
decisions that requires nurses to consider what is ethically best and feasible for their
patients. Understanding the principles and applying them appropriately to both patient
management decisions and the allocation of scarce resources is becoming increasingly
important. If we are prepared to face the many challenges of this pandemic, we must
prioritize ethical requirements over treatment and management issues.
