- Abstract (English):
- On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared that the outbreak of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), that causes the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is a pandemic. The severity of this disease has alerted everyone and poses ethical and moral dilemmas. However, it is important to highlight that even in times of crisis, central ethical principles such as respect for autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice remain the same (even if some become more significant than others as new contexts emerge), since ethics is subject to the social reality in which people find themselves and the unforeseeable events that may arise in it, as in this case, COVID-19. We will address these ethical aspects in this review; we will also recall a little bit of the history of humanity in times of epidemics and pandemics and the ethical challenges they faced. A pandemic likes the one we are living in can be an area of opportunity to reflect and progress towards fairer and more equitable health, in addition to a society and people more committed to their health and respectful of the common good.
