BIOETH505 – The Ethics of
the COVID-19 Response: Global, Regional and Local Challenges
Course
Leaders: Kathy Kinlaw and Gerard Vong | Summer 2020 | Thursdays 3pm – 5:30pm
The COVID-19
pandemic has led to significant social and ethical challenges around the world
and in our homes. Taught by a range of faculty across multiple Emory schools
alongside nationwide guest faculty, this interdisciplinary course will analyze
bioethical issues raised by COVID-19, ranging from global issues such as
restrictions of freedom (e.g. isolation and quarantine), to regional issues
such as allocation of scarce resources in a hospital system, to local issues
such as individual inequalities in the practice of social distancing.
