It explores how policies and practices in health care allocation impact different demographic groups, including older adults, persons with disabilities, and marginalized communities, particularly during crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The book discusses the role of equality law, including the Equality Act and Article 14 of the European Convention on Human Rights, in addressing disparities and ensuring fair access to health care. It also highlights challenges in resource allocation, public health initiatives, and specific contexts like infertility and intensive care. Written for an audience of legal scholars, policymakers, and health care professionals, the book aims to provide critical insights into achieving social justice through equitable health care practices.$7Generated by AI. 410 0$aBristol Studies in Law and Social Justice Series 606 $aHealth care rationing$7Generated by AI 606 $aEquality before the law$7Generated by AI 615 0$aHealth care rationing 615 0$aEquality before the law 676 $a362.10941 700 $aHorton$b Rachel$01828890 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911010550603321 996 $aDiscrimination, Equality and Health Care Rationing$94397906 997 $aUNINA
