Lifelong Learning: "Challenging Times; Impossible Choices: Healthcare Rationing in Times of Crisis"

Thursday, April 2, 2020 8 Nisan 5780

4:00 PM - 5:00 PMVirtual

During the past few weeks, we have been constantly bombarded by headlines warning of a shortage of medical supplies.  In times of international crisis, what happens when there are not enough resources to help everyone that needs assistance?  How does the field of bioethics guide healthcare policy and practice? Although the concept of human dignity states that all people should be treated equally by virtue of being members of humankind, what happens when we must ration life-saving medical supplies?  Is there a "human hierarchy?" If so, what is it based on and who makes those decisions? How will decisions that are made during this COVID-19 affect the future of humanity?

 Join Dr. Stacy Gallin, an expert in the field of bioethics and medical humanities, for a conversation exploring these difficult concepts.
