Its contents cover the issues that are likely to be most controversial in any public health crisis. It starts by discussing non-pharmacological measures, such as the appropriateness of confinement, how to control compliance with public health measures and the ethical, legal and social acceptability of health certificates. Then it turns to issues related to the production, distribution and administration of vaccines, with a particular focus on the design and implementation of vaccination policies. Finally, it analyses the most appropriate criteria to develop a triage, when the situation brings us to this terrible scenario. The analyses presented in this book are based on the ethical and legal frameworks, as well as the social context, of the European Union, and aims to address the main dilemmas faced by any liberal democracy dealing with a pandemic: how to reconcile the defense against a public health crisis together with a respect for fundamental rights and freedoms. The European legal systems have developed a number of conceptual tools designed to ensure that there is no room for arbitrariness in the restrictions introduced by the political power in emergency situations, and this book builds upon these tools. The Ethical, Legal and Social Issues of Pandemics: An Analysis from the EU Perspective is a predominantly practice-oriented book, which will help policy makers to adopt policies that effectively combine public health needs with individual rights and freedoms. It will also help health care givers to understand better the ethical and legal issues involved in their work and citizens, in general, to participate in public decision making in an informed manner. Finally, it will help to design tools that faithfully comply with existing fundamental rights standards. 410 0$aMedicine Series 606 $aMedical policy 606 $aMedical ethics 606 $aMedical laws and legislation 606 $aHealth Policy 606 $aMedical Ethics 606 $aMedical Law 606 $aEpidèmies$2thub 606 $aPolítica governamental$2thub 606 $aCondicions socials$2thub 606 $aÈtica$2thub 607 $aPaïsos de la Unió Europea$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aMedical policy. 615 0$aMedical ethics. 615 0$aMedical laws and legislation. 615 14$aHealth Policy. 615 24$aMedical Ethics. 615 24$aMedical Law. 615 7$aEpidèmies 615 7$aPolítica governamental 615 7$aCondicions socials 615 7$aÈtica 676 $a363.349 676 $a344.2404369 700 $aMiguel Beriain$b In?igo de$f1972-$01271174 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910574859603321 996 $aThe ethical, legal and social issues of pandemics$92994586 997 $aUNINA
