Doctors Flee from Epidemic
In the latest issue of the American Journal of Bioethics, Malm et al. address the question of whether physicians have a duty to treat during a public health emergency or whether the duty to heal ends where the epidemic beings.
However, if people began to have the RFID tags implanted into them as discussed by Foster and Jaeger perhaps AWOL physicians would be a bit easier to find?
Lastly, Sharp et al. discuss "who's buying bioethics research". Is it industry? Is it the government? Foundations? Is anyone REALLY buying? And if so, does that mean that all bioethicists are just bought out? You'll have to read Issue 8:8 to find out.
