Abstract
- The article discusses concerns over the ethics of infectious diseases including the limits of the responsibility of heath care workers who are subjected to personal danger, the scope of restrictive measures for controlling outbreaks and the allocation of scarce resources. It cites the articles by Peter Omonzejele and Ross Upshur in the issue of "Journal of Bioethical Inquiry" which address the ebola virus disease (EVD) epidemic and exemplify the cultural dependence of ethical reflection.
