Ethical and Legal Guidlines for Decision-making in a Context of Scarce Resources in the Covid-19 Pandemic
In March of this year, the Research Unit for Medical Law and Bioethics by the Institute of State and Law of the CAS prepared a document that summarized essential ethical and legal principles on which any decision-making mechanisms on the allocation of scarce resources should be based. This document was further discussed during the summer. Based on foreign discussions and position papers, we have significantly reworked our original recommendations and added decision algorithms.
