Prepare inclass debate on public health – SUBJECTIVE RELATIVISM – PRO
In other words, when does the safety of the general public outweigh the autonomy of the patient (if ever)?
The scenario this week focuses on mandatory testing for HIV. Keep in mind that you should also be arguing where the line is before just saying no one should be forced to do anything. Many public health issues impair or remove autonomy such as quarantines during major breakouts (COVID 19, Ebola, etc); mandatory vaccines (to attend public school); and mandated tests (to attend clinicals). In your debate make sure to cover all areas.
