Wednesday, 13 January 2021, 3pm to 4.30pm
Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 pandemic has raised numerous ethical issues. However, many of the issues are recurrent and seem to surface with every significant infectious disease outbreak. In this presentation, I will discuss several of these issues and raise questions as to what accounts for our collective forgetfulness.
