Synopsis :

Ethical Issues of the SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak in East-Central Europe and Beyond is an edited collection that examines the profound moral and societal challenges unleashed by the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on the ethical tensions that surfaced in health care, governance, and individual rights. Through the exploration of East-Central Europe's responses, the 16 chapters of this book shed light on the crisis of resource allocation, the strain on health systems, and the shift in ethical paradigms that prioritized collective well-being over individual autonomy. This collection is a reflection on the bioethical dilemmas of the first global pandemic of modern times.
