DESCRIPTION:<p>The Covid-19 pandemic raises a number of urgent ethical issues. For example\, to what extent should individual freedoms be restricted to stop the spread of the virus? How should advantages and disadvantages of measures taken against the pandemic be distributed among the population? Who should be prioritized in vaccination\, nationally and globally? What is the ethical significance of emotions or attitudes such as fear and hope in this situation? This workshop will gather philosophers and other scholars to discuss the ethics of the ongoing pandemic.
