Extract

Public health ethics in the future will be distinguished from public health ethics in the past by this new subfield being labeled as such, acknowledged, and called upon for service. Ethical dilemmas have been present throughout the history of public health. The question of whether to force Henning Jacobson to be immunized in 1905 in accordance with the 1902 Massachusetts smallpox vaccination law was one of ethics as well as law. How Thomas Parran, Surgeon General in 1936, chose to respond to a raging syphilis epidemic in the United States in the early part of the 2W century raised considerable moral debate in determining the appropriate public health response for a government? More recently, questions have arisen concerning the appropriate reach of government in controlling HIV banning smoking, or promoting healthy lifestyles. Debates over government infringement, morality, and justice recur throughout the history of public health.

During this period, there were numerous important contributions to ethics and epidemiology as well. These are not described in the main body of this work, however, as they relate to the large body of scholarship on research ethics than they do to defining an ethics of public health.

Singer, P., One World: The Ethics of Globalization (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2002); By contrast, Ilona Kickbush notes that focusing arguments to reduce global poverty on self-interest may be strategic in the short run, but will not be as effective in the long run. It has been argued that the United States should commit funds to global public health in order to save the millions of dollars associated with global diseases increasingly affecting Americans, or the costs of global social unrest, terrorism, and violence borne out of poverty and poor health. Justifying aid this way, Kickbush suggests, has resulted in the United States moving out of multilateral public health and aid efforts and “reinforcing global unilateralism at a time when many of the health issues require a truly global response and the cooperation of many actors”.
