Medicine and Ethics in Times of Corona Hans-Martin Sass

The Corona pandemic kills people and endangers families, friends, communities, companies, institutions, societies, economies, and global networks. It brings about triage, unemployment, social distancing, and home schooling. Countries respond differently, and often set aside civil and basic human rights. Families and friends cannot get together, visit the sick, nor attend funerals. This pestilence is clearly a cultural, economic, and political disease. 40 leaders in medical and sociological research, in politics, religion, and consulting from 24 countries offer diverse, sometimes controversial answers, collected by Martin Woesler and Hans-Martin Sass.
