Case Analysis: • COVID-19 and health inequity
The assignment in brief
This assignment is an opportunity to synthesize and apply what you have learned in the course.
In this assignment, students will locate relevant news stories from reputable sources and write a comprehensive bioethical analysis using these reports as your factual base. Demonstrate your ability to understand ethical theory, bioethical issues, themes, and concepts.
To narrow your focus, read the reports through the lens of one of the following theme:
·
COVID-19 and health inequity
·
· This assignment is an opportunity to think critically about the U.S. experience of this pandemic. It is especially relevant to issues such as whether African Americans will participate in the novel treatments currently in development for COVID-19. The case ties directly to the disparate health outcomes locally and in the state of Michigan, as well as the disparate incidence and death rates among people of color in various regions of the United States (Native Americans in the tribal regions and Latinx in New York). It also provides the opportunity to reason through issues such as how we prioritize the requirement to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) – who should have access to wear it, where should they wear it?
